Sean Corner #9

Sean Corner, a six year member of the Hamilton Hornets Rugby Football Club, was accidentally injured in a rugby game on September 9, 2006. His spinal cord was damaged causing paralysis from the waist down. This is likely to be permanent. He is currently receiving therapy at Chedoke Hospital in Hamilton. Sean is 21. He played rugby for three years at Hill Park high school. He went on to play at Mohawk College and won athletic and academic awards there. He then became starting scrumhalf for the Hornets' 1st XV.

Sean is at Chedoke Hospital, Holbrook Pavilion Bldg, Room D381 ( 2nd floor ). On weekdays, Sean will be busy during the day with rehab programs, so visiting hours are Mon - Fri from 5pm to 8:30 p.m. and weekends 11am to 8:30 p.m. Supper is usually at 5pm so you may find him in the cafeteria at that time.

From time to time updates on his progress will be posted here, but remember he does like to have visitors so note the above times and go see him.

The Hornets will be organizing several fundraising events over the next few months, so please come back and visit this site for details so you don't miss out on any.
