Hi all
You should have had an email through about the Commonwealths in Nigeria this year, please consider carefully if you would like to go?
I need an expression of interest as soon as possible please, then I can look if it's viable and potentially select a squad.
Also we are hoping to communicate about the home nations competition in Nottingham soon
Cheers Ev
Also as some of you have done already , please put you reasons for not wanting to go too!
