The fixtures for the forthcoming Western Counties West season have been announced with Falmouth hosting Tiverton on the opening day.

The Eagles will play two friendlies against Swindon College Old Boys and Canton RFC before Tiverton visit the rec on the 4th of September.

This will be a long-awaited return to full contact after the impact coronavirus has had on the game.

Of course, the fixtures to look out for are the ones against Penryn (most notably the Boxing Day friendly), the matches against Truro, Old Dunstonions Easter Tour, and the opening home fixture against Tiverton which should be a great occasion.
