After last years virgin appearance at the sixes, a larger squad and supporters are headed there this year....
The Ducks are based in Beijing where we were founded in 2016 by Tbag, Cheese and Double D. Besides playing in the Beijing league, the Ducks are regular travellers to the Nanjing sixes, and the Philippines sixes and are even embarking on a UK tour this year in July(just in time for the World Cup). The highlight is no doubt this years Chiang Mai Sixes.
