WORCESTER'S American football team Worcestershire Black Knights have learned who they will face during the 2018 season.

They have been placed in British League South Conference Two West alongside Cornish Sharks from Newquay, Dorset’s Jurassic Coast Raptors, newly-affiliated Somerset Wyverns, relegated South Wales Warriors and Torbay Trojans.

The campaign will see Knights play 10 games with eight recognised as league fixtures.

Two development matches will be scheduled, either against teams to add to Knights' experience or to help new sides fulfil league entry requirements.

Anyone interested in trying the sport is welcome to head along to their new base by Perdiswell Leisure Centre, Bilford Road, on Sundays from 10am until 1pm.

Participants are asked to bring boots, a mouthguard and water as well as an eagerness to join in.
