Opportunities have arisen for 8 players to make their TAC CUP debut for the Rebels which is credit to these players for all their hard work and commitment over the Pre Season phase. The team have already come up against the Pioneers and Falcons during Trial Games this year and they were both very competitive hit outs for both sides and it will be a great test for the Rebels to achieve an opening victory for 2015.
