STUDLEY boss Mark Chambers is hopeful that the club can re-arrange their friendly clash with West Brom Reserves this summer.

The Bees were due to take on the Nationwide First Division giants' second string this Sunday but injuries in the Baggies camp meant the clash was postponed yesterday.

Chambers was busy this week finding a replacement team to take on with the kick off still planned for 3pm.

Studley, who are gearing up for their Midland Football Alliance campaign, invite fans to go along early to soak up the fun in the sun with a bouncy castle, giant football plus lots more on offer at The Beehive.

Admission is £2 and £1 concessions

Meanwhile, newly-promoted Alvechurch have announced an exciting mix of friendly fixtures ahead of their Midland Football Alliance campaign.

The pick of the bunch sees co-managers Andy Hibbert and Neil Bryan pit their wits against Dr Martens Premier Division opposition Moor Green at Lye Meadow on Tuesday, August 5 (7.45pm).
