Cornish Pirates Secure Landmark US Investment

Cornish Pirates have announced a landmark investment from Stonewood Capital Management Inc., led by Pittsburgh investors Kenn Moritz and John Tippins. The deal follows the recent addition of businessman Richard Wastnage to the board, further strengthening the club’s financial base. Pirates chief executive Sally Pettipher said the backing signals strong confidence in the club’s strategy and long‑term vision. With the club sitting seventh in the Championship and still in play‑off contention, the injection of capital is seen as a boost for both on‑field performance and future infrastructure development. capturengo.org
