WORCESTER Hockey Club men's seconds beat Barford Tigers 3-1 in the West Midlands Premier Division.

But the first team’s visit to the same opposition in the Midland Premier Division was postponed due to the weather.

Worcester thirds romped to a 5-1 win at Boots in Midlands One, while the fourths beat their Barford Tigers counterparts 2-1 in the West Midlands Premier.

The sixths drew 2-2 with Bromsgrove fourths in South West One and the eighths were held 1-1 by Olton and West Warwick sixths in Division Two with Russell Boatman scoring.

Worcester should have won after going 1-0 up towards the latter stages of the first half thanks to a shot off a short corner by Boatman that was deflected in by a defender.

Pressure from Olton led to the hosts’ George Chakko-George helping home the equaliser.

Jacob Chakko-George impressed down the right wing and Austin Shipley shone in goal, while Conor Mehaffey made his debut.

On Saturday Worcester firsts host Belper who are two positions above them in sixth place but 10 points ahead.

Craig Timmis scored as Droitwich Spa lost 3-1 at home to Evesham and Badsey in West Midlands One.
