SCC League Finals 2012

It all comes down to one game. The championships are up for grabs in all three Divisions this weekend as the defending champion Daredevils face off against the Bashers in Division 1, last year’s runners-up Digital Devils meet the Leopards in Division 2, and 2011 Division 3 champion Pudong Dream Team meet the League leaders Bashers CC.

Following a controversial washed out match against the DPR Hot Dogs in the Division 1 semi, the Bashers are back in the finals for the first time since 2009. They meet a strong Daredevils side that was top of the regular season ladder at 10-1-1; the only blights on the perfect record having been handed to them by the Bashers.
