Kaine Dimech joined Cornwall after a trial period with the club
Cornwall's Malta international forward Kaine Dimech has signed a new one-year deal with the League One side.
The 28-year-old played in all 19 league and cup games for the Choughs last season having joined last year.
He also featured for his country in international matches against Bulgaria and Montenegro.
"My first year in League One was a success in my eyes because I managed to play in every single game," Dimech told the club website.
"I knew it would be a test and I had to push myself after signing relatively late in pre-season.
"With that in mind, my initial focus was just to be part of the squad, but to be involved like I was helped the team achieve some notable victories."
Cornwall head coach Mike Abbott added: "Kaine was one of our real success stories from last year.
"He came to us for a pre-season trial, whilst coming back from quite a nasty injury. We could see something in Kaine and invited him back down after Christmas for an extended trial.
"He trained the house down, making my decision to sign him really easy. He moved to Cornwall with his girlfriend, which shows a huge level of commitment and a desire to not pass up the wonderful opportunities that Cornwall can offer aspiring rugby league players."
