The competition was fierce and all Marham competitors performed exceptionally well. The return journey home was the hardest opponent, with delays at the Eurotunnel and road closures due to the snow, but eventually they returned home at 3.30am, demonstrating the club's firm dedication.
The club looks forward to further international competitions later in the year.
