The tournament comprises of six teams, four based on the North Island and the remaining two on the South Island. With four titles to their name, the Auckland Aces are one of the most successful sides in the tournament.
The Aces have managed to build a strong team. With big names like James Neesham, Finn Allen, and Mark Chapman in their ranks, the Aces will be expected to fly high this season.
The team will be led by Sean Solia, who would want to make his side the most successful team in the tournament’s history.
