WORCESTER City Youth kicked off the NERF Junior Premier League campaign with some eye-catching performances from several sides.

The under 18s, fielding a host of 15 year olds within their ranks, put in a fine team display to beat Bustleholme 4-1.

The highlights included two goals for Olly Berry and a penalty save from keeper Ben Clay.

The result followed a 6-2 win over Rugby Borough Juniors in the Midland Floodlit Youth League a few days previously.

The pitches at Perdiswell also brought mixed fortunes for three other City sides.

Man of the match Bora Sahingoz bagged a hat-trick for the under 12s in a 6-4 win over Herefordshire RTC.

The game also saw another City penalty save, this time from Joe Tipper.

City's under 15s collected an impressive 4-0 victory over Alvechurch.

The under 13s found their first taste of competitive 11-a-side action to be a tough baptism of fire as they were soundly beaten 12-0 by a well-drilled Hereford side.

In their first JPL game the under 10s made a winning start against Stoke RTC.

Away from Perdiswell, the under 18s girls also got their season under way in style in the Central Warwickshire League with a 5-1 success at Sedley and Gornal United.

City’s reserves were unlucky to only draw 4-4 in a physical encounter at Knowle where they succumbed to an injury-time equaliser after battling back from being 2-0 down.

Emils Fedotovs, Myles Simpson and Ethan Moran (2) scored in the Total Motion Midland League Reserve Division encounter.
