ENGLAND ANNOUNCE THEIR EUROPE CUP 2006 TEAMS

 

Whilst the England Women's team was exactly as expected, the England selectors have surprised many people with their selection for the Men's team, and include two players for whom playing in a WDF Cup competition will be a new experience.  Shaun Greatbatch is, of course, well known all over the World. The other new face is the experienced Steve Farmer. Steve does not play the international circuit, and is relatively unknown outside the UK.
