The finals to be played in Seville.

The venue will be announced soon. I won't be going as I'll be having a scan in April, amongst other things.

The FFT announced a couple of weeks ago that the tie will be played at "The Cauldron" in Le Portel on 12/13 April. Unsurprisingly the choice of surface is indoor clay. It has a capacity of 3,400.

(Le Portel is in Boulogne, so very accessible from the UK).

They must be two weeks behind, as when I googled it, there was no venue.

Emma Raducanu, Katie Boulter, Harriet Dart and Heather Watson have been named for our team. Are the BBC showing it somewhere, either on the TV/Red Button or their website?

[Stell]

I've just done a live chat with Peter from the BBC. He's told me, they'll be showing it from 1.30pm (13.30pm) on the Red Button and Red Button HD next Friday.

Thank you Stell for helpful information.

not a good start for GB, Boulter losing heavily against Diane Parry. Up to Raducanu now v Garcia.
