Cornwall go into their final pool match in this season’s Jason Leonard Cup looking to end their campaign on a high following their defeat at Topsham against Devon Under 20’s last time out.
The match will be played on Sunday at Redruth RFC with a 2 pm kick-off.
CRFU Chairman Steve Murley had this to say. “Much of this season’s squad are only just out from our Under 18’s from last season and in many cases will be available for another two seasons at this level.
“They will have learned much from this season’s campaign that they can carry forward into next season’s.
“I have no doubt they will wish to finish their campaign with a win against Somerset and with the help of a good crowd on Sunday I feel confident they can achieve this.”
Cornwall selectors have made a few changes from the side that Devon, with a first start at centre for Camborne’s Ted Kullich who returns from injury. Skipper Jack Jenkin moves from No.8 into the second row.
