Brace yourself for an epic clash of warriors!

Take your pick and cheer on your favorite knights: the valiant Knights of Munster, the fierce Dublin fighters of Fragarach, or the ferocious Black and Back 1316 team from Athenry. Who will reign supreme?

Knights of Munster

Cheer them on with “Munster Abú”

Sir Brendan heads the Knights of Munster, the youngest team in the tournament, but don’t let that fool you, they still have a wealth of experience to draw on, several of the team members have fought at tournaments across Europe and beyond, and their newer members are eager to prove themselves in the List and proudly wear the three crowns of Munster on their sleeve. As the home team they are here to win and defend the honour of Munster.

Honoring the Past Through Buhurtub

The undisputed veteran of the three clubs clashing in this tournament, 1316, hails from the medieval town of Athenry. Founded by four kindred spirits from diverse backgrounds, they were united by a shared passion and commitment to promoting the sport in Western Ireland. Their name, 1316, commemorates the Second Battle of Athenry, a brutal conflict fought on August 10th, 1316, remembered as one of the bloodiest battles in our nation's history, with devastating losses on all sides. Primarily a Buhurt club (specializing in large-scale battles rather than duels), they honor these fallen warriors every time they take the field.

Their motto, "Ceann agus Croi," translates from Gaelic to "Head and Heart," perfectly encapsulating their core values.

Team Fragarach

Dublin's Fearsome Answer

Team Fragarach, aptly named after the legendary sword of Ireland's first High-King, Nuada, embodies the spirit of that fearsome weapon. Living up to the reputation of the "Answerer," this Dublin-based club is swiftly becoming the nation's largest under the steady leadership of their veteran Captain, David. Fragarach has earned a well-deserved reputation for sportsmanship, fair play, and, of course, their tenacity in battle. Their emerald green, blue, and white surcoats are a familiar sight on the field.
