The Team England Pathway Pairs tournament will be held on Saturday 19th September 2026 at The Outpost, Sheffield, S3 8GZ. The venue has free on-site parking and Pay & Display parking directly by the front gates. There is also a 24h NCP carpark nearby. The venue is close to local bus and tram routes, and is a 15 minute walk from Sheffield train station. There are many hotel options within a 10 minute walking distance.
This year has seen the beginning of the Team England Pathway take place over on the Squad England Discord. Coaches have been partaking in curated training sessions and competitive games since the beginning of 2026 with a view to improving their Blood Bowl playing level in a friendly environment, and we're looking to extend that environment to the tabletop at this event! Come and join us for 3 dedicated training sessions throughout the day and have a chance pose your questions to Team England members in person. Pathway Coaching sessions are open to all, but optional. We encourage you to get involved, but there is no pressure to do so.
Hot food is available for purchase on site from The Pitstop, and The Outpost bar sells drinks and snacks.
