KINGS Norton warmed up for their return to competitive action with a comprehensive friendly win over Warley.

The Hopwood side are preparing for life in Midlands West Four South after relegation last year but dismantled their Midlands West Four North opponents.

Player-coach Rory McLean was among the try scorers along with Martin Edwards, who has returned from Kidderminster, prodigal scrum half Martin Hefford, Paul McGlynn, John Hefford, Barry Scrimager and captain Mark Waudby.

Outside centre Matt Hall is back at the club full time after returning from Exeter University.

And Norton are at full strength for Saturday's trip to Midlands West Four North outfit Old Edwardians in the NPI Cup (ko 3pm).
