It must be Friday – it’s raining again! But the sports pages in the print edition of the Cornish Times are full of reports and pictures to keep you entertained.
Saltash United are keeping a close eye on the forecast ahead of their scheduled FA Vase tie against Cribbs FC at Kimberley. Manager Matt Cusack gives us his thoughts.
Talking of water, there is great news from Caradon Swimmin Club where 12-year-old Olivia Shute from Liskeard won two gold medals at the ISA National Swimming Championships in London.
Her sister, 11-year-old Hollie, also won a bronze medal.
That story and a round-up of reports and pictures from a great weekend for Caradon feature in a full page within the sports section.
We also feature Polperro FC, who had a great day on Saturday. After officially opening their new dressing room block at Killigarth, they beat Ludgvan 9-1 in the Cornwall Charity Cup.
We report the latest developments at Boconnoc Cricket Club, which we featured last week on the back page with news that an infestation of chafer grubs had wrecked their ground.
Our South West Peninsula League coverage includes a comprehensive report on proposals for the restructure which is being introduced next season.
Dobwalls joint manager Billy Westlake believes his side are showing great improvement, despite their exit from the Charity Cup at the hands of hih-riding Porthleven.
We also have reviews of the East Cornwall Premier League and the Duchy League.
And of course our sports pages feature Ross Reid’s Plymouth Argyle column where he reveals why he has always been a Green.
In rugby, we report on a double celebration for Liskeard-Looe from their trip to Plymouth Argaum, while Saltash continued their revival with a win over Paignton.
Caradon Hockey Club’s men’s first team made it the perfect ten by beating title rivals Exeter University to sit at the top of the tree for Christmas in Southern Two.
And Clare Poad scored a hat-trick as Caradon Ladies’ firsts won a ten goal thriller at Taunton Vale.
Plus . . . we have two pages of digest with reports and results from darts, euchre, snooker, billiards, pool, skittles, bowls, youth football and golf.
It’s all there for you. Thank you for continuing to support your local newspaper.
