WORCESTER Rugby Club's National League Division One clash at Bedford Blues tomorrow has been made a 3.30pm kick-off.

The switch in times comes on police advice with the town also hosting a high profile FA Cup first round match with Peterborough.

Meanwhile, North Midlands 18-Group Schools have been forced to cancel their scheduled match against East Midlands at Droitwich on Monday, November 19 .

"East Midlands have contacted us to say that they cannot raise a team," explained John Thomas, the North Midlands secretary.

"Last week they played Notts, Lincs and Derbyshire with only 14 players and this week their position is even worse, so we have reluctantly had to cancel the match."

North Midlands' next match at this age group is against Leicestershire at Worcester's Sixways ground on Monday, December 3.
