THREE more tries for Jamie Faulkener saw Droitwich Spa RFC First XV climb one place to third in Midlands Three West (South).

Spa won 38-18 at basement side Keresley, from Coventry, last Saturday. The victory was the fourth league success in a row for Julian Bailey's side and their sixth in eight league games since winning promotion from Midlands Four West (South).

Faulkener, who went over for four tries in Spa's 51-12 home victory against Southam in their previous outing, scored a hat-trick and Matt Blackmore kicked four penalties.

Director of rugby Bailey said: "It was a tough encounter. We were expecting it to be tough."
