Season 2003
After a finals dash that left the other clubs spinning the Wildcats were again in the Grand Final. With earlier 2003 success in the Brit Cup, and after watching the Raiders comeback from the dead to reclaim the Conference Cup, the final score Wildcats 8 5 53, Lions 18 11 119 did not reflect the pride and passion that had become such a part of the Wildcat's game through the finals.
Raiders 2003 Premiers
Shepherds Bush Raiders 11 10 76 defeated
Regents Park 11 8 74 in the 2003 London Conference Grand Final. The Raiders won back-to-back premierships to make sure they are the only team with their name on the Conference Cup. It was a nail-biter, with the final margin a mere two points. Click the link below to read Dogga's report on Grand Final day and to see the pictures.
