NORTH Midlands have been forced to ring the changes for the Tetley's County Championship promotion play-off ag-ainst Hertfordshire at Kidderminster Carolians tomorrow (3pm).

Half-a-dozen players who played in last weekend's Tetley's County Shield quarter-final defeat by Northumberland are either injured or unavailable.

There will be a Championship debut for Ludlow fly-half Mark Williams, while Terry Finn and Allan Mitchell have also been brought into the back division along with winger Ian Gowland.

There is a new front row of Ben McGowan, Richard Arnold and Steve Jacques and number eight Glen Eager has been brought into the pack.
