Phil Maynard, the Pertemps Bees' director of rugby, will face a difficult selection decision when he sits down to pick his side for the National One game against Penzance & Newlyn at Sharmans Cross Road on Saturday September 11 (3pm).

Australia seven international fly-half Tim Walsh will be available for selection after he missed the 45-25 win over Henley at Dry Leas Saturday because he ws attending a family wedding in Australia.

In Walsh's absence Mark Woodrow took his chance to impress by contributing 25 points to the Bees' victory with a kicking display that included just one miss.

Maynard said: "Tim is available this week but Mark took his chance well against Henley and it leaves us with a very difficult selection decision to make this week, albeit the sort of selection decision that you like to have."

Full-back Dave Knight, Pertemps Bees' leading try-scorer last season, is expected to be available for selection this week after three weeks out with a knee ligament injury. Knight will have a fitness test on Thursday evening.

Lock Dan Zaltzman will also require fitness test on a bruised leg which he suffered in training last week and then aggravated at Henley.
