MALVERN'S re-arranged North Midlands Cup quarter-final against Whitchurch will take place on January 2.

The Spring Lane side requested a postponement because of a shortage of front-row forwards and the winner will host Bournville in the semi-final on February 6.

Elsewhere, Bromsgrove travel to Old Halesonians in the other semi-final.

Old Hales edged out Black Country rivals Dudley Kingswinford in atrocious weather conditions last month and will now welcome the Boars, who beat Camp Hill, to Wassell Grove on January 2.
