The first-ever World Tens Series tournament is currently underway in Bermuda from Tuesday 24 October until Saturday 07 November 2020 where eight international privately-owned teams will be participating.
From 2021 the tournament will be expanded to include 16 teams competing in tournaments in 12 locations throughout the world.
London Royals and The Rhinos proved unbeatable on day one of the World Tens in Bermuda as both made it three wins from three.
