Somewhere on my website I've got a page with a photo of the BUF National
Indoor Championships trophy and a list of Champions on it.

It is, however, a little out of date (last updated 1997!) and I'm
thinking of updating it (or maybe someone else wants it?)

Here's the list I've got, with a quick history lesson attached (feel
free to correct me if I've missed anything/got it wrong!)

BUF National Indoor Champions 
1979    Robber Barons F.C. 
1980    Ally Pally Tossers 
1981    Clivedon Studs 

all of the above are WAY before my time!

1982    Samurai 
        - some of these guys can still be seen playing for HeadRush
1983    Samurai 
1984    Tennants Super F.C. 
        - mostly became 'Mysterons' and later 'Violently Happy'
1985    Warwick Bears 
        - from the cradle of British Ultimate
1986    Battersea Boleros 
        - subtitled 'the Holy Lunching Friars of Voondoon'
1987    Stan 
        - a team of Warwick Bears graduates
1988    Hombres 
        - the UK team with arguably the best UK record (Indoor and
Outdoor) ever
        - they later became 'the old men who play O' in Shotgun Wedding,
who went on to make Clapham their stomping ground
1989    Stan 
1990    Hombres 
1991    Hombres 
1992    Fluid Druids 
        - they're still around, the original UK team to play in purple
1993    Regulators 
        - they later became 'the youngsters who play D' in Shotgun
Wedding. Some of them are now recognisable as the 'old men who play O'
for Clapham.
1994    Fluid Druids 
1995    Fluid Druids 
1996    Fluid Druids 
1997    Fluid Druids

is this right for the more recent years?

1998    UTI             (2nd: Fluid Druids) @ Cheltenham
        - another team of graduate Warwick Bears, some of them now play
for Clapham
1999    Blue Arse Flies (2nd: Fluid Druids) @ Cheltenham
        - they're still around, you know them!
2000    ?               (2nd: ?)@ Plymouth
2001    Mexican Horse Bandits   (2nd: Blue Arse Flies) @ Cheltenham
        - 'Team Shipley'? another group of graduate Warwick Bears
