Unfortunately the date chosen for this year’s Castle Trophy does not work for several of the invited clubs and the decision has been made to cancel the 2026 edition and focus on the 2027 edition.  It appears that the dates 6 – 9 May 2027, which coincide with Ascension Day in Europe, are a better fit for some of the clubs in Europe as they can take advantage of the public holiday on Thursday 6 May 2027.

Invited Clubs have been notified.  Further details and invitations will be sent out towards the end of this year.
