Yes – that’s right – the date you’ve all been waiting for has finally been confirmed. Block out the whole weekend on your calendar to make sure you don’t miss out on getting a bit rural in Nanjing this year. We are returning as defending champions, so we need a strong showing to keep the Shield of Dreams safely in the cabinet. More information will follow, S.S.

From Katie:
As Hosts… We get to decide the rules.
Just for a heads up it will be much of the same looseness, Jimmy’s on the Friday same ground ….. cake….
But this year we will be applying an experimental rule … “The el luchador”
Each team will be required to submit their batting line up that cannot change during the game before the toss. After the toss one name from each team will be drawn from a hat and that person will be the nominated El Luchador. They will be required to wear a el luchador mask during the whole game. The El luchadors runs are worth double.
Get the word out there……….. It’s happening
