Axed Ridout vows to chase national prizes

By Western Daily Press at 05:00 on 05/06/13

Wiltshire's Graham Shadwell and Somerset's John Hick duly retained their places in the England team to play in the men's international series in Dublin later this month, but Ilminster's Louis Ridout, who had been labelled an automatic choice, was axed.

By The Bristol Post at 05:00 on 04/06/13
