Home Nations: Where the Swag is Spicy!
Breaking with tradition, we’re revealing the swag ahead of registration
The Home Nations has always kept its full tournament swag under wraps until the morning of the tournament, when Captains arrive to register their teams. Regular attendees will know there is one exception: every year we release a freshly bottled chilli hot sauce from our good friends at Just Chillies, which suspiciously seems to get hotter every year!
We’ve always kept the rest of the swag top secret, until now. This year we’re breaking with tradition and revealing the main gift ahead of registration - partly because I can’t be trusted to keep something this cool quiet!
What about the English dice?
The last three editions have seen the reveal of each of the Home Nations country dice, starting with Ireland, then Wales and Scotland in turn.
This leaves just the English dice… but you’ll have to wait until 2028 as, with the World Cup Edition, we’ll be delivering something different!
Black Orc Down have come up with a collectible!
We’re really proud of our partnership with Black Orc Down over the last few years. They’ve helped us create collectible swag, from the country D6s and stun tokens to last year’s beautiful ball carrier token.
Well, this year is going to be no different - inspired by the Shamrock Reroll Token that Team Ireland gave to Eurobowl opponents a few years ago, we’ve come up with the Home Nations Shield for all your re-rolling needs!
Black Orc Down have taken the tournament's shield logo and turned it into a magnetic four-piece re-roll token with three normal re-rolls and a leader re-roll. We hope you’ll agree this is cool and almost worth the admission price alone!
So for those planning on coming to Home Nations - World Cup Edition, you can expect to get your mitts on one of these awesome re-roll shields, a bottle of spicy hot sauce and a few other things we’ll leave as a surprise.
Missed out on previous Home Nations Swag?
As we grow year-on-year there will no doubt be coaches who missed out on the Irish dice, the stun tokens that came with the Welsh dice, or last year’s ball carrier token. If this is one of your life’s regrets, never fear, as Black Orc Down have the collection in their online store.
