Bahamas v Bermuda in Hamilton (NACRA Caribbean Champ., North, R3)
Venue: National Sports Centre
Referee: Joyce Henry
Preview
Joyce Henry is the first women referee appointed to a full IRB international rugby match.
These two teams begin round 3 in the Caribbean Championship which is a round-robin tournament involving the winner of the Cayman Islands-Mexico rugby test match scheduled for 14 May.
Honours have been even for the last two encounters between these two Caribbean rugby nations. Bermuda has the home ground advantage. The traveling team is usually weaker than when they field a side at home. At this level the teams are mostly amateur players some being unable to travel because of work commitments.
