How long have you been together and what made it happen?

The team first formed in 2012. With few lineup changes, the team settled in 2014 on the objective to train and compete on the European tunnel circuit and completed the current lineup in March 2015 when Colin Rothman joined.

The team is coached (and fed) by Marco Arrigo.

Ultimately the team's goal is to represent South Africa both indoor and outdoor.
