The team from Cranleigh travelled up to Luton on Sunday to take part in The Home Nations Qualifier.
This competition is to select 8 teams to travel to Inverness in August to play against teams from Scotland and Wales.
Thirty teams traveled to Luton for the competition from all over the UK.
We went for the experiance of a top class competition.
After arriving at 8.45 we booked in and awaited the draw. It was very hot and very windy.
Our first game was against a strong team comprising two members of this years English team.
After we took a 6 - 1 lead, they got their act together and took the game 13 - 6
We went on to win the next 3 games against very good competition including Graham and Kim from Adur assisted by our regional President Bernie.
We went into the last game knowing that we must either win or get a very high score to make it to Inverness.
Our team quickly made it to 11 - 6, then the oppostion changed the line up of their team and went on to beat us 13 - 11.
We spent the next hour awaiting for all of the results to come in, hoping that our points difference would take us through. But alas we didn't do enought.
We went to play and we played well. Bring on Wales next year
