Redruth 2s get a final run out this coming Saturday with a friendly away game at Perranporth before the delayed start of their league season.

Perranporth play in Counties 2 Cornwall and last season finished in 5th place with 14 wins from 22 games. Reds 2s last played the Brewers back in 2023/24 winning 17-13 away and a more decisive 34-17 victory at home, a season in which the Reds won promotion.
