Rugby Festival at Callywith College

Impressive Callywith College at Bodmin was the venue for the latest Cornish Pirates Rugby Festival, involving pupils from St. Stephens Community Academy, St. Martin’s C of E Primary, Tregadillett Primary, Lanivet Community Primary, Lewannick Community Primary and Warbstow Community Primary.

The Festival, which took place last week at the college’s excellent new facilities, gave an opportunity for the children to demonstrate their skills at an event that also provided a truly memorable day.
Cornish Pirates squad members Tom Channon and Tom Cowan-Dickie assisted with the refereeing, and with some last-minute coaching tips.

Player Tom Channon commented:

It was great to see the children playing some open rugby and they all had some great questions during the Q&A.
