WORCESTERSHIRE Under 18s look to continue their strong start to the Midland Counties Youth Championship campaign at Northamptonshire.

The teenagers visit Raunds Town on Sunday (2pm) bidding for a third successive victory in the competition.

They won their opening fixture comfortably 6-1 at Huntingdonshire and managed to keep their winning streak going with a narrow 3-2 victory at Shropshire.

Worcestershire are second in the championship and unbeaten this season.

Birmingham are top of the league with only one goal the difference between the sides.

Northamptonshire are yet to score any points after losing their opening fixture and having two more postponed.

Worcestershire (from): Louis Guest and Harry White (both Badsey United), Dan Tierney (Bromsgrove Sporting), Josh Goddard, Alex Hammerton and James Schembri (all Evesham United), Max Farthing (Hartpury College), Harry Osbourne (Hartpury College/Malvern Town), Tom Fishwick (Leamington Spa), Chris Neilson (Stourbridge), Luis Sone (Stratford Town), Sean Cooke (Stratford Town/Pershore Town), Jack Brighton, Max Crisp, Aston Gunter, James Lemon (all Worcester College of Technology).

• Broadway United are challenging for the Stratford Alliance Division One championship.

They are six points behind leaders FISSC with one game in hand ahead of Saturday’s visit to Redditch United which was quickly rearranged after being snowed off last weekend.
