It was another close match for the Okehampton Ladies who fought right until the end in very muddy conditions against Truro recently — and were narrowly defeated by 27-20.

The team will be in search of their first win this coming weekend with their game at Camborne.

Try scorers at the Truro match the weekend before last were Issy Edworthy and Becky Dennis.

‘Another great and (very muddy) match for the ladies with a win so close in sight,’ said captain Becky Dennis. ‘I’m so proud of all the girls who are growing in confidence and skills every match.
