With many Cornish rugby pitches unplayable following the recent horrendous weather the CRFU hired all weather pitches to allow some clubs who had been worst affected to play rugby on 31st January. There was no charge to the clubs who played.
Four games took place at Callywith College while Truro College staged two games. At Callywith two Colts games took up the morning session whilst two senior games were played in the afternoon. It was only possible to play one Colts game and one Senior game at Truro.
Teams ranging from St Just to Launceston, Saltash to Bude and all points in-betwen took part. In total with six games taking place we think something like 500 of our rugby community comprising players, coaches, physios, touch judges and supporters enjoyed their fix of rugby. In addition Will Hancock a recent graduate of the recent Ready2Ref course held at St Austell made his senior refereeing debut.
Many thanks to all who made this possible and in particular Dave Saunter (pictured above with Bodmin RFC players) and Lee Maher for their sterling work on and off the field
