    University of Surrey 1s

    Just got a reappointment for Weds as my original women's game has been cancelled. Now down for Uni of Surrey 1s v Brighton Uni 1s in BUSA South East 2A. Guildford is a bit outside my normal patch even for college games and I know nothing of either side. Anyone got any info? I've done other 2A...
