IT was honours even for Kidderminster Carolians under-13s and their Old Halesonians counterparts who drew 27-27.

The scores were level at half time with braces from Charlie Evans and Alex Parson cancelled out by their opponents.

Alex Hopkirk's late try looked to have won it for KCs, but Old Hales equalised with one of their own on the final whistle.

With Bredon unable to field a full under-sevens side, Kidderminster Carolians gave a good account of themselves against a team including older players.

They lost the first game by the narrow marin of eight tries to seven but moved up a gear to take the second game by seven tries to five.

Tom Ford finished with seven tries with Elliott Murphy the next best scorer with three tries.

The bigger you are the harder the harder you fall was the harsh lesson KCs under-nines learned after thinking they had frightened Bredon with their size.

Bredon's small squad proved that appearances can be deceptive as they defeated KCs 40-5 and 40-10.

Captain Mark Desogus got the consolation try in the first game with Tom Mayall crossing twice in the second game.
