U13s 64 St. Ives U13s 0
On a wonderfully hot
and sunny Sunday, the Pirates U13s played matches against both St. Ives and Falmouth,
the games played 12 minutes each half. In this first
match the Pirates defeated St Ives by nine tries to nil. Scrum-half Phil Nicholas
was a lively link for the forwards to combine well with the backs, the power and
pace on show leading to some excellent scores being taken by the starting team
and all replacements used. St. Ives, to their credit, tackled
to the end and never let their heads drop.Try-scorers for the Pirates were Lockran
William (5), Tom Holdsworth (4) and Dillon Tree. Coliver Hallworth added four
conversions, with three also kicked by Sam Coogan.

the Penzance lads kept to their game plan of putting width on the ball at every
opportunity, and it paying dividends with seven good tries scored through Tom
Holdsworth (4), Lockran Williams (2) and Lewis Wells. Conversions
were kicked by Oliver Hallworth (3) and Sam Coogan. The
forwards again played well, and none more so than debutant Tom Lambourn who won
the `man of the match` award . A final game at the Mennaye
Field involved Falmouth and St. Ives, with the former, who loaned four of the
Pirates to make up their team, winning an even contest by 10-5.

squad members along with them on Sunday, so it was decided that players from last
season's U7s team would play the first match against am impressive Redruth side
that led 4-1 at the break because of their good tagging and defence. The
Pirates started the second half strongly and managed three fine tries themselves
through excellent tagging and passing, but Redruth still emerged winners. Try-scorers
