DEFEAT in the promotion play-off against Newport means that last season's runners-up Pershore will again ply their trade in MIdlands Three West (South) when the new rugby union season starts in September.
Evesham, however, have slipped further down the Midlands Leagues structure and have been relegated from MIdlands Four West (South) to the new surroundings of North Midlands South One where they will come up against Worcestershire rivals Redditch and Upton-on-Severn in addition to Gloucestershire neighbours Bredon Star.
Leagues constitution - Midlands Three West (South): Silhillians, Pershore, Stratford, Keresley, Earlsdon, Old Coventrians, Hereford, Solihull, Shipston, Bedworth, Old Leamingtonians, Nuneaton Old Eds.
North Midlands South One: Kings Norton, Tenbury, Evesham, Handsworth, Redditch, Bredon Star, Woodrush, Upton-on-Severn.
