HRC Touch can officially call itself champion of the Netherlands.

The Hague team, coached by Jon MacDonald, won the Cup based on the number of tries scored.

The first edition of the Dutch Cup took place at URC in Utrecht.

The conditions looked good and the organization had pulled out all the stops to make it a great day.

This edition saw 4 teams competing for first place.

FIT has decided that every country affiliated with FIT must have a competition in which the rankings must be played.

This also allows us to see which clubs are eligible to participate in the Club Championship, the European

Club championships.

This can be compared to the Champions League from the football world.
