The RFU have recently released County Championship fixtures for our
Men, Women and U20 Teams. There are some mouth watering clashes there
with both our Men and Women playing double Championship winners in
their respective groups. We are working hard behind the scenes to
arrange additional games with potentially some exciting fixtures. As
soon as we have confirmations will be releasing further details
Our mens team kick off their campaign with a home game against
reigning champions Kent who will no doubt be determined to win their
third consecutive title. Cornwall and Kent have won the past 4 County
Championships so this promises to be a titanic encounter. Our final
group game is at Hampshire who will be keen to avenge the defeat at
Redruth last season.
Our Women, semi-finalists last season in their County Championship
Division 2, begin with an away game against reigning two-times County
Champions Hampshire.They then have two home games, the first against
Gloucestershire while the final group game is a fantastic contest
against our friends from the other side of the Tamar, Devon.
Our U20s begin their games at the end of March at home against
Gloucestershire before travelling to play Devon and completing their
group stage with a home game against Somerset.
We will post details of where matches are played as soon as we can, so
you can come along and support your Cornish teams.
