U11s Make Final at Newbury Festival

Having recently won the Cornish County Championships the U11s made it to the final of the Newbury Festival.

Being a national event gave this young talented team the invaluable experience of playing other well-trained sides from further a field.

During the rounds in getting to the final not a single point was conceded showing great defence and dominance.

The final was held against Newbury where after a brave effort they conceded the only try of the festival which gave Newbury the win.
