Cornwall Women go into this Sunday’s Tamar Cup match against regining Gill Burns Division 2 Champions Devon Women having to make some changes to last Sunday’s squad.
The principal reason is the unavailability of players from Ivybridge who are involved in a RFU Cup Final at Twickenham against Old Albanian II. This will also have an impact on the Devon squad.
From the team that defeated Berkshire Women, skipper Amy Bunt, Hannah Mills, Elizabeth Langton and Jessie Humber are unavailable.
Rhiannon Thomas steps up from the bench to replace Langton in the backrow.
In the backs, Rachel Hicks moves from the wing to full back to replace Bunt, Abby Masquelier (Penryn) and Suz Franks come in on the wings to replace Mills and Hicks.
The bench sees Maddie Webber (Camborne), Heather Holmes (Penryn), Michelle Bauer (Camborne) all come in from the selected squad for the Championship.
Launceston’s Megan Arnold takes over as captain with Amy Warman again vice-captain.
A win for Cornwall will see them qualify for the semi-finals of this year’s competition.
Kick-off at North Tawton is 2 pm on Sunday.
For those unable to get to the game on Sunday full match coverage is available on BBC Radio Cornwall from 2 pm.
