REDRUTH Rugby Club's rugby manager, David Penberthy, has announced yet more players from their current squad who have agreed to stay at the club next season.

The latest group of players who have signed contracts are James Mann, Darren Jacques, Ashley Morcom, John Navin, Peter Joyce, Simon Peters and Nathan Pedley. Penberthy said: "This is hugely encouraging that key players from this season's squad are committing themselves at this early stage. All too often I have spent the months of May and June chasing players down to agree new contracts. By knowing what we have at this stage of the season allows us to plan early and prepare the squad properly for the 2007/2008 season."

Penberthy went to say that he was still in the process of talking to other players and would be announcing further signings as they occur.
