Alex Everett was made captain of Cornish Pirates at the start of this season

Cornish Pirates captain Alex Everett has re-signed with the club for next season.

The back-rower, who joined from Cardiff in the summer of 2022, has made 85 appearances, scoring 11 tries.

The 29-year-old has also sat out periods of the past two seasons through injury.

Joint head coach Alan Paver said: "His output on the pitch is so invaluable to us, with his collision dominance both sides of the ball.

"He has really grown as a leader and you could see the difference he made coming back in the new year after a frustrating spell on the sideline."
