Falmouth Town Football Club is delighted to announce the formation of a new Under-18 team, which will be guided by a highly experienced and dedicated coaching trio.
Coaching Team
Dave Rawlings
Dave Rawlings brings a wealth of experience to the new Under-18 setup, having played for both the 1st and 2nd teams. He also managed the 2nd team in 2015-16 season and was the captain of the Falmouth team that won the St Piran League (formerly the Jolly Combination League ) in the 2011-12 season. Dave has been coaching at the youth level for several years, and his extensive experience and leadership will be instrumental in developing our young talents.
Rachael Brockett
Rachael Rocket is no stranger to Falmouth Town FC. She has been a dedicated member of the club, working in various capacities and playing for the successful Ladies’ team under the guidance of Town legend Neil Phillips. Rachael’s deep connection to the club and her experience in the Ladies’ team will be invaluable in her new role with the Under-18 team.
Harry Rodgers
Completing the coaching team is Harry Rodgers, who has recently played in, and won the league in his first year back with the new Under-18s. Harry’s current experience as a player and his recent success will bring fresh insights and energy to the coaching team. The establishment of the new Under-18 team is a testament to Falmouth Town AFC’s commitment to nurturing young talent and building a strong future for the club. We look forward to seeing our new team grow and succeed under this exceptional coaching trio.
Falmouth Town would like to thank Persimmon Homes for their sponsorship of our club. Sales Director Jane Cartwright presented a cheque for £3,000 to Club Director Malcolm Newland, in the presence of the Falmouth Mayor Cllr Alan Rowe and Deputy Mayor Cllr Louise Coley at Bickland Park today.
Falmouth Town are pleased to confirm the signing of forward Kai Cornish.
Cornish, joins from local rivals Helston Athletic, having just won the Western League title with the blues and gaining promotion along with Falmouth Town to the Southern League.
Kai Cornish becomes our first signing of the season.
“The club has a great history and it’s got a great fan base, having played against them quite a few times in big occasions over the last few seasons it’s exciting to have their support for the season.” Cornish told falmouthtownafc.co.uk
“When I spoke to Westy, I felt this was the right place for me to develop my game and help the team achieve its goals”
“As a winger, I think I can bring a lot of pace and creativity to the team. I love taking on defenders and creating opportunities. I’m also committed to tracking back and helping out defensively, so I aim to contribute on both ends of the pitch”
“I hope to help the team establish ourselves in the Southern League and to hopefully lift some silverware in the process”
“Kai is a player I have tracked and admired for a number of years and shown interest in but for what ever reason a move has never materialised”, first-team manager Andrew Westgarth said. “He fits the profile perfectly for us. A local lad, great age, an eye for goal. Hopefully he can continue where he left off at Helston and be a real success at Falmouth Town”
Midfielder Jacob Grange has decided to leave the club. Jacob joined Falmouth Town in 2023 from Truro City Reserves. During his time with Falmouth Town, he made forty-one appearances, scored seven goals and helped us win the Cornwall Senior Cup and promotion to the Southern League. We would like to thank Jacob for his efforts and wish him well for the future.
