WORCESTER Warriors 'A' struggled to a 35-18 defeat at Chandos Park against Leeds Tykes last night.

The Yorkshire club used the game to give match practice to some of their first team players, including prop Rayno Gerber and scrum-half Mark McMillan.

But it was England U19 star Danny Care who troubled the Warriors defence by scoring one try and setting up another.

Worcester's 'A' team are back in action at Sixways next Monday, when their Newcastle Falcons counterparts are the visitors.
