“15 years ago, our sport did not even exist – we are able to continue to play the game we love, all-be-it in a different format, at a slower and safer pace – or, for many, they are able to take it up as a new sport. So many opportunities – live longer and better – Fun, Friendship & Fitness.”

Speaking about the award, Kingston WFC’s Manager, Peter Yiannakou told Nub News: “This is a fantastic achievement to go side-by-side with our 2025 RBK Award ‘Sports Team of the Year’ Award.”
