STEPHEN Cowperthwaite, North Ribblesdale's 18-year-old wingman, will be broadening his rugby experience over the next couple of months in New Zealand, where he will be teaming up with Simon Devoy and Jake Kelly, the Kiwis who played at Grove Park last season.
Cowperthwaite went this week and will be back in early September, accompanied by Devoy and Mike Robinson, brother of super twelve second row Keith, who played with the Settle club five years ago.
The versatile Mike plays hooker, flanker or fly half and will travel in early August.
