12/2/06 - Tag Rugby Exhibition at Kenwyn
The Pirates U7s and U8s teams were invited to Kenwyn to take part in a 'tag' rugby exhibition, the event being a curtain-raiser before the Pirates' National 1 encounter against Bedford Blues. All the children were extremely excited about this opportunity, and this reflected in the standard of play in their games against Lankelly-Fowey, St. Austell and Helston.

The U7s played Helston only, with all team members contributing to a very high standard of rugby. The final score was 7-5 to the Pirates.

Players taking part were Joel Bick, Daniel Rhys Evans, Connor Rushton, Sabian Friggens, Daniel Butterfield, Abe King, Harold Ault, Bill Thomas, Elliot Tree and Henry Nowell.

The U8s played two games, the first against St. Austell being very exciting. The Pirates won 8-3, but then lost to a good Lankelly-Fowey

team. Pirates - Rory Osborne, Charlie Williams, Nick Nowell, Andrew James, Joel May, Robbie Scrambler, Jack Williams, Ellie Angove, Anthony Barrett, Tyler Tresidder, Callum Lee, Ollie Rodger and Harry Roddy.

The young Pirates had a fantastic day, and would like to thank their senior side for inviting them. Thanks also to NFU for sponsoring their bus, to Penwithian Wholesalers for providing refreshments, and to Sally Westren and Sally Emery for making up over 70 food bags which were kindly issued out by Cornish Pirates players.
