WORCESTER'S Under-16 team produced one of their most impressive displays of the season to run out 46-7 winners against Lichfield.

Matches between these teams are usually closely-fought affairs and the first 30 minutes of this game saw Worcester having to defend to keep the visitors out

Then hooker Dominic Keily plunged over from a tapped penalty and wing Jamie Neville went over in the corner after full-back Dan Richardson had come into the line to put Worcester 12-0 up at half-time.

Richardson touched down to make it 17-0 and Neville grabbed his second try after a powerful run down the touchline.

Prop Nick Martin was up in support to finish off a good break from stand-off Chris Wilkes and second row Ben Yates powered over twice from close range.

Andrew Garton picked up from the back of a scrum and drove over while conversions from Alex Pimlow (2) and Wilkes rounded off an impressive Worcester display.
