Cornish Pirates have signed prop Milo Hallam for the forthcoming Championship season.

The 21-year-old Cornishman helped Exeter University to two British championships and one league title.

He was also named in the BUCS University Team of the Season in his final year.

Hallam has spent time at Pirates in pre-season and featured in their friendly against Redruth earlier this month.

"We feel he is now at the right age, has matured, and having had exposure will make a good fit for us as we look to give another young Cornishman an opportunity to make his mark,” joint-head coach Alan Paver said.
