With the internationals being scheduled during the AMNRL club season, the curtain raiser in Manhattan will be the Connecticut Wildcats against the New Jersey Sharks in a cross conference matchup.

Both the Knights and Broncos will be aiming to win the inaugural trophy that both the AMNRL and JRL hope to develop into a long standing rivalry between the two nations top club teams.

The USA Tomahawks will be looking forward to an improved performance against the Samurais, with new young players being provided a great opportunity to be selected for international honors. It is understood that the Tomahawks coaching staff will be making major changes to the personnel for this match, after some indifferent performances from some established internationals in recent matches.

With the current C.D Ferrainola Cup Competition in full swing, it will be interesting to see what players step up to the next level as the Tomahawks prepare for the Samurais and Russian Bears in the AMNRL's feast of Summer Rugby League.
