Chinnor winger Charlie Oyebade has an unusual pedigree in that he has played for England Students at both rugby union and rugby league.

Oyebade, who returned to Chinnor this season after playing for the club as a junior, achieved that distinction while studying at Southampton Institute.

Charlie Oyebade And the 16-year-old is still playing both codes as a 12-month a year man.

During the summer, he plays league for North London Scottish, while, after trying his luck at Wasps, he has gone back to Chinnor.

Oyebade looked to be a useful acquisition, making some elusive runs in Saturday's 21-8 victory over Swanage & Wareham on their debut in South West 1.

"I would like to have been more involved in the game, but I'm sure I'll see more of the ball as the season progresses."

Another new face to shine for Chinnor on Saturday, was their 23-year-old South African fly half Louw (pronounced Low) Kruger, who has only been in this country a fortnight.

A teacher by profession, he is currently looking for a job at a local school.

With his place-kicking skill and tactical know-how, the former Gauteng Falcons under 21 stand-off looks a distinctly useful prospect, although he will have sharpen on his line kicking after two horrendous slices close to his own line.
