Jack Innard

The young Cornishman only took up playing rugby after his local football team folded, but it proved a shrewd decision as he has since gone on to establish himself within the game.

He started out initially with Falmouth before moving on to Truro, where he was also at college and became part of the Exeter Chiefs Academy system.

Having previously played at both flanker and centre in the past, Innard has finally found his position in the No.2 jersey where for the past few years he has combined being part of the Chiefs set-up with that of playing Championship rugby with the Cornish Pirates.

Regular game time in the Championship has certainly helped to develop Innard, who underlined his worth to the Chiefs when he scored the opening try in their Anglo-Welsh Cup Final win against Bath at Kingsholm.
