Rugby- County representation

On May 9 two Liskeard/Looe Under-17 Colts players represented Cornwall in the English RFU National Under-19 County Colts Seven-a-side rugby competition held at Chippenham, Wiltshire.

Dean Burchell and Danny Arnold both played in a number of games for Cornwall on the day and although the county were eliminated from the cup, Cornwall then reached the final of the plate losing to Cheshire.

Dean who is still only 16 and Danny who is 17 were the youngest in the Cornwall squad and were competing against 19-y-o players in other county teams. Both players scored in the competition.

Both Dean and Danny play for the Liskeard U-17 Colts who had an outstanding season in 1998/1999 and next year this same team will be competing in the U-19 colts set-up. New players welcome.
