In addition to continuing to play a key role in the Pirates team she has been selected to play for the Cornwall Girls Rugby under14 team. As an 11 year old she was moved from the scrum, where she plays with the Pirates to full back as the girls are up to three years older. Her excellent knowledge of the game and all round athletic abilities enabled her to switch to this position with great success. She made the starting line up for Cornwall in both the matches against Devon where Cornwall won the Tamar Cup for the 2006 season. More recently, Caitlin has been talent spotted by her Cornwall coaches and asked to attend South West training led by an England scout. She has also gained a place in the South West squad for two matches that may lead to a national tournament at Rugby School. Caitlin is very keen to go as far as she can in rugby which remains her first love, despite being part of other successful teams over the last year:
