Speaking after the final, Sharky kept it short and sweet by saying: “I always believed.”
While SDS player David Marques Castanho who got on the scoresheet that night added: “Being a champion just feels amazing.”
And they’ll be hoping they can do it all over again with the new season now underway.
But teams such as NDL, who is managed by YouTuber Niko Omilana, have tricks up their sleeves this season such as an alleged mysterious Premier League star.
Why is a Baller League player wearing a mask and is he a current Premier League star?

While academy product Henri Lansbury and Manchester United starlet Cameron Borthwick-Jackson are set to feature this time around.
