It will be an intense showdown this Saturday as we take on the Swindon Wildcats.

Swindon have had a very successful season sitting at the top of the table, winning 21 of their 27 games played. #18 Tyler Watkins has scored nineteen goals so far this season making him the Cat’s top scorer. Last weekend the Cats beat MK Lightning 4-2 however then took a 3-0 loss to finish off the double header. Swindon will be after another win and will put up a strong fight for The Pitbulls.
