Unfortunately, I failed to attend Battle of the Nations-2014, but four my clubmates joined the National Team of Australia. Next year, I hope to bring two full 5-member teams to participate in BotN-2015.

Now the Australians are in talks with representatives of the HMB movement of New Zealand concerning formation of a mixed team to participate in “21 vs 21″. We have a lot of history fighting alongside our Kiwi brothers. Our countries’ spirit was forged by the ANZACs (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) in the First World War.

It will be great to see again all our friends with whom we fought before. And I’m very excited by the fact we will fight against the experienced participants right from the first round next year!
