After qualifying for the 2012 England Junior team, Lewis Fletcher, from our Mill Inn Aldeburgh team, was due to play the Welsh Junior team, for his first international cap. Unfortunately the Welsh couldn't get a team together but all was not lost, as Lewis and his team-mates were then asked just last Saturday whether they would compete in next weekends 8th European Invitational Junior Championships, being held in Kayl, Luxembourg.

Having accepted this prestigious invite, we travel on Friday morning via Eurostar etc onto Luxembourg and are due to be picked up by the host club. Saturday and Sunday sees Lewis' team plus one other England junior team facing teams from at least 8 other countries including Israel, in an event sponsored by UniCredit Group, LuxAir and Nutella.

A detailed report will follow once we return.
