Well Done to All

Exmouth Rugby presented their Colts Awards for 2019-20, after an extended delay. The winners are normally recognised at the Annual Dinner and Awards Presentation in May.

Cockles Colts had a strong season with several players, including the 3 award winners making their senior debut towards the close of the season.

Our Colts had arranged a tour to Belgium as their finale however due to Coronavirus this was cancelled. Dee Travers, along with the lads did a super job on their own fundraising to make the trip happen. Dee coordinated the trip. They even got new tour shirts ready to wear for game time.

Massive thanks go to Head Coach Andy Churchill with Grant Vaughan-Atkins and Josh Pitman working to develop the young squad. Andy hosted the awards last Friday with Nick Smith DOR and myself in support.

I am especially proud of this group of lads, they toughed out some challenging games and came out as a tight knit squad. We have a very successful tradition of developing our lads to play senior rugby and to progress as they leave the club for university, services or other opportunities. We recently saw half a dozen previous colts lads re-join us for senior training, all back from work or university. It’s fantastic to see them return. Past Junior, Colt and Senior player Ollie Dawe, now at Jersey Reds, recently donated a few items of his Bristol Bears training kit to some of our lads.

New Players are always welcome, to find out more for this season, please call Andy Churchill, Colts Head Coach on 07388 874324.
