Saltash carried their unbeaten league and cup competition run into the Millennium with an impressive Bank Holiday win in the Worthington Bitter, Cornwall Clubs, Knock Out Cup at a rain soaked Treworgie.

Sammy Mugford for Albany and Nigel Owen for Saltash both missed early penalty chances before Saltash put a stranglehold on things up front.

Back row Peter Congo celebrated his new year with a try hat-trick, two at the start and one at the finish. Steve Hall was driven over for a try minutes into the second half, and there was a penalty try before scrum half, and there was a penalty try before scrum half Rob Bewes got the downward pressure after an unbelievably huge 40 metre scrum carried Saltash over the line.

Three conversions and a penalty from Anthony Ruby plus a conversion from Bewes made up the Saltash total, while Mugford converted his own try for a late Albany consolation.
