As part of their Rugby 'Academy' training week, year 7 - 9 pupils from Redruth School recently visited the Cornish Pirates training base at the Mennaye Field, Penzance.

The youngsters saw the Pirates doing their pre-season fitness routines in the gym, and then took part in a skills session given by lock forward Joe Beardshaw.

Former Cornish Pirates Team manager, Adrian Edwards, who is nowadays a Sports Development Officer with Redruth RFC, attended the session along with Redruth School staff members Craig Bonds (Head of PE) and Jamie Wilcocks (PE teacher).
