BPCC 50th Anniversary Tour 2023

The 2023 Tour will be a particularly exciting one. Not only is it the 50th Anniversary Tour, it will be the first time that both men and women's squads will be playing simultaneously at the same grounds.

The men's tour will run from Sunday 25 June - Friday 30 June and will once again be led by Capt Mick Martin (Gwent). The women's tour will run from Tuesday 27 June - Friday 30 June and will be led by Capt Holly Hopes (Hamps)

The usual occurrence of unavailability due to exigencies of duty such as courses / training has resulted in a further 6 debutants (3 men, 3 women) being selected for the Tour week namely:

Hayden Tice (Humberside) - RHMF

Ben Harmison (N'Bria) - LHB/RFM

Lewis Jones (S. Wales) - RHMF
