THREE players hit hat-tricks as Worcester City under 18s romped past Tuffley Rovers 12-1 in the Midland Floodlit Youth League Cup.

Hassan Shah, Joel Owusu and Christos Gabriel bagged trebles with a Riley Keasey brace and a further strike from Matty Patrick-Rivers doing the damage in an emphatic team display.

The girls' under 18s also hit double figures by thrashing Coundon Court 10-0.

Despite being down to the bare bones the boys' under 15s beat Stoke RTC 4-1 in an entertaining clash at Perdiswell.

A stunning free-kick by Dexter Dudley-Toole and acrobatic volley by Corbin Jarvis supplemented goals from Jack Fisher and Joe Rothery.

The under 14s hit back from behind to take a share of the spoils from their home match with Kidderminster Harriers as Reece Day and Jay Dimmock netted.

In another 2-2 draw the under 12s were denied victory by a last-gasp Stourbridge equaliser in a pulsating encounter.

Sam Shean opened the scoring and then supplied a cross that Oliver Pierkarski fired home to give City a 2-1 lead before the dramatic finish.

In the under 13s clash between the same sides, league leaders Stourbridge won 6-0 but City can take plenty of positives as they held their own for long periods despite missing five players through injury and illness.

The under 10s boys and girls and under 11s took on DB Academy, Wyre Forest Phoenix and Aston Villa Ladies respectively.

The under 18s were edged out 2-1 at Oxford City with a late Cam Monteith goal setting up a tense finale as the visitors went close on several occasions to equalising.

The reserves dominated possession but succumbed to two late goals in a 2-0 loss to Nuneaton Griff.
