Matt Ballard is the second player to receive Twikkers photo as selectors make their way around the grounds checking on players for the next Bill Beaumont Championship season.

Matt's contribution as hooker was immense. He got through a huge amount of work in open play and hit his targets in the lineouts. At scrum time he provided stability to a Graham Dawe front row.

CRFU selectors have started visiting fixtures and checking on players for next County Championship campaign as Cornwall set out to retain the Bill Beaumont Cup.
As part of their visits they will present members of the 2019 squad with a photo to mark winning the County Championship.
