Speaking to Mervyn on Saturday morning, it seems the plan is to change the dates to make this trip coincide with the Africa Cup being held in Hazyview.

Africa Cup 2104

Hi Flyers
Just a reminder that the Africa cup this year will be held as usual in Hazyview BUT THE DATES HAVE CHANGED.
NEW dates 17 July to 20 July 2014
The weather is good and more predictable at this time of year and the hotel can offer us low season prices.
Be sure to book your rooms.
Cheers Rob McFie (Competition director).
