I received a communication from Wales yesterday (Sunday) during our County match the due to lack of confirmed entries the Anglo County Celtic Cup had been cancelled by the holiday Camp. I do apologise for any convenience this has caused, this is not what England want to be seen to be doing.

I think the problem has been caused by the camp double booking the event with another which they were unable to re-schedule, and our event them was re-scheduled with certain financial additions to which England were not party too, thus making the event too expensive in a lot of counties opinion.

We will be working hard on finding an alternative for next season at a more realistic costings. I think the concept of the event was good and for those Counties who attended the original event, would agree it was a very good and friendly competition.

Once again on behalf of The England Board please accept our apologies at such short notice.
