RGS Worcester toppled King's Worcester 20-17 to win the Modus Challenge Cup for the first time in four years in a thrilling clash at Sixways.

Kobe Chikosi's try with five minutes to play proved to be the winning try as they came from 17-10 down at half-time to win the cup for the first time since 2018.

They had led 10-0 early on but King's score 17 unanswered points to take the lead early in the second-half. 

But a Hollingworth penalty and Chikosi's score proced decisive as RGS won the cup.

It was RGS who settled quickest in the rain and they raced into a 10-0 lead thanks to a score from Ollie Blunt and a Daniel Hadley conversion.

Hadley added a penalty in the 16th minute to extend the lead before King's finally got some momentum.

A break from winger Joe ward ended in a try, which was superbly converted out wide from George Tomlinson.

The centre then levelled things up later in the half to make it 10-10.

RGS then had to play the remainder of the half a man down when winger Samuel Pledger was sent to the bin for a tackle in the air.

But the scores remained level.

Into the second-half and this time is was King's turn to start well as a break from Ollie Edwards eventually saw the captain Laurie Checkley scoop up a loose ball to charge over from 15 metres.

Tomlinson added the two and King's now led 17-10 having been 10-0 down.

The second period was dominated by RGS, who had plenty of territory and the ball thanks to some ill discipline from King's. 

But it took them until the 56th minute to register points in the half as fly-half Harry Hollingworth kicked a penalty to reduce the lead to four points.

Having had so much ball, RGS finally made it count as winger Kobe Chikosi kept his feet to score in the corner and Jack Barnett's excellent touchline conversion put them 20-17 up with four minutes to play. 

But King's had a chance to level it late on but Tomlinson's penalty fell agonisingly short of the upright.
