Sheffield promoter Damien Bates has got one eye on 2017 and insists 'It's going to be our year!'

Tigers were beaten in the Premier League Grand Final by Somerset after their brave fight came to an end. They were again been plagued with injuries all year long - mainly to heat-leaders Jason Garrity and Simon Stead.

While the Tigers scraped through to the end-of-season play-offs, they defied all the odds to eliminate in-form teams in Newcastle and Glasgow. Bates says he couldn’t have asked for much more from his side and has revealed plans for next season are well underway.
