He has overseen the most successful period in the on-field history of the Cornish Pirates with silverware in the British & Irish Cup in 2010 and places in the last two RFU Championship play-off finals.

During his tenure there have also been major logistical challenges with the club relocation from Truro to Camborne and then back to the Mennaye Field in Penzance.
