CORNISH Pirates players have been sent out on loan to clubs around the country.

The Mennaye Field side confirmed today Rob Elloway, Craig Holland and Jake Parker have struck short term loan deals at Bournemouth, Worthing and Chinnor respectively.

It comes a day after the club announced Jack Andrew and John Stevens will be loaned out to Redruth.

Director of rugby Ian Davies said: "It is a win win situation for us really.

"We build up strong relationships with National League clubs and also our players get a chance to get valuable game time as they continue to return back from injury."
