The Cornish Pirates squad figure for next season continues to grow, following an announcement that three more players will again be on board for next season.

The latest trio announced are all backs, and each has signed a one year contract. They are fly-half Laurence May, wing Kyle Moyle, and scrum-half Mike Pope.

Coach Gavin Cattle said: “All three individuals have developed as players and Laurence is now one of the standout out 10s in the Championship. We are really pleased to have him on board and look forward to him taking his game to the next level.
