Lewis selected for 2014 England Junior squad
Again, we can report the progress of the Leagues' star junior player, Lewis Fletcher, who attended an England Juniors coaching day two weeks before Christmas, and from the countrys' 28 junior players who attended, he has been subsequently selected in the first 14 players that make up this coming seasons England Junior squad, making this his third season of being involved at England international level.
Lewis capped last season by captaining the England Juniors at the World Championships in France, when the team won 3 out of their 7 matches, including a strength-sapping 2.5 hour knock-out match versus Slovakia, that England eventually won 13-12.
He will now undergo further coaching days as the EPA develops the players ready for more international duty later in the season, which could include the OJM International Invite tournament in Nieuweggin, Holland during Easter, the International Triples in Kayl, Luxembourg usually in July and possible selection into the England Junior team to compete at the 2014 European Junior Championships due to be held in Bassens, France in early November.
Good luck and fingers crossed....

Adnams Coastal Petanque League - European Trip Part III - 2014
As has now become tradition, our League departs during the early part of May, bound for Belgium and as of last season, Holland as well, in our annual European Tour.
From Friday 2nd May until either Monday 5th (or Tuesday 6th) May, we will hopefully travel through the Channel Tunnel to our base in Middelkerke, on the Belgian coast. From there we will visit two, three or maybe possibly four separate venues over the trip for matches against Belgian and Dutch opposition. (It is also being investigated as to whether a match on French soil can be included).
We should be in a position to provide costings shortly but don't expect them to be much different than in previous years.
If you'd like to seriously be considered in coming on this trip, please contact the League Co-Ordinator as soon as possible, as we need to confirm with the bus hire company, Eurotunnel, the hotel and our various hosts as to the number of people expected.
You may decide to travel by your own methods but you will still need to pay me for the hotel and a contribution towards the cost of gifts for our hosts. If travelling with the League Co-Ordinator, we will be planning to take either a 9-seater people carrier, or if numbers require, a 17-seater mini-bus. If more numbers confirm, then we will arrange a small coach with a designated driver.
