Not playing at home?

[Dave Deacon]

Apart from Truro City, Praze, Perranwell (SPL) and Helston Raiders are there any clubs who don’t play their home games in their own city/town/village?

[Gary Hocking]

Small distances, I know, but Wendron play in Carnkie and Mousehole play in Paul.

West Cornwall can play on any ground from Truro up to Newquay and down to St Just and say they are playing at home.

New Inn Titans don't play in the pub garden. They don't even play in Park Bottom.

I don't follow junior football an awful lot but taking a quick search through historic pages it seems that Storm are a bit of a nomadic club over the years.

They've played at various pitches in and around Redruth & Camborne. 

Does anyone know more on their history and how they got their name?

They used to be a top junior side and played at clijah. They had connections with America and some of their players went over to coach.

Where did they get their name from?

I think the lad who started up the team was also coaching in America with a team called Texas storm fc. They had a very good junior side at that time, probably early 2000's? If I remember correctly his name may have been Penna. They also had a few players that travelled down from Plymouth, Brad Smith was a player I remember being a very good sweeper. Matt Osborne played centre mid, and his brother played up front. Always well organised and a hard team to beat.

A quick Google search and his name is Antony Penna, and it looks like he is still involved with Kernow Storm fc in Dallas.

I remember Pz playing Storm on that pitch a few hundred yards down the lane past Holman's. 

Was things right as I was told the ground belonged to Camborne Rugby Club, used to have a wooden stand that was taken down for safety reasons? 

I remember the grass on the pitch was quite long but we spectators had to drive through and park in grass that was nearly waist high !

[Martin Eddy]

Yes Paul that's right and then Titans played there but the running costs where too high. Shame could have made a senior ground.

Reffed storm there once, drove into the ground someone from storm informed me that there was a drugs den under the dilapidated stand and the police were on the way. One of my best pitch inspections ever.
