Trewirgie Off To Twickenham - Schools & Cornish Pirates

The school was chosen from the 30 schools who have taken part in the EDF Energy National Schools Rugby programme, which has introduced Tag rugby into schools from Redruth, Camborne, Truro, Penwith and Falmouth through a Cornish Pirates coach, and visits from the Cornish Pirates players.

Trewirgie School won the Redruth tournament held in December, to win the right to play at Twickenham.

Dave Williams, rugby coach at Trewirgie School said:"We have really enjoyed being a part of the Cornish Pirates EDF Energy Programme, and we look forward to representing Cornwall at Twickenham."

Trewirgie will play a school representing Exeter Chiefs on the Twickenham pitch during half-time of the EDF Energy Cup Final between Leicester Tigers and Welsh side the Ospreys.
