Watch Warriors Under 18s kick off new season this Saturday

Under 18s face Wasps in league opener this Saturday

Warriors Under 18s will begin their season this Saturday at home to Wasps in the Premiership Rugby Under 18 Academy League at Sixways (kick-off 1pm).

The young group will be looking to go one step better than the past couple of seasons where they’ve finished fifth at the Academy Finals Day, beating Exeter Chiefs (2016) and Saracens (2017) at the end-of-season event.

Their campaign kicks off on Saturday before trips to Northampton Saints and Leicester Tigers in January alongside a home game against Yorkshire Carnegie.

And February sees the youthful Warriors travel to Sale Sharks while also hosting Newcastle Falcons.

Sixways hosted the 2017 Finals Day and will once again be showcasing the country’s best young talent in the competition finale on Saturday 10 March.

And Warriors will be hoping to be there for the third year running later this season.

Warriors Academy Manager Chim Gale said: “We’ve got an exciting young group once again this season and they’re buzzing to get out there and play on the big stage at Sixways.

“We hope as many of you will come down and cheer on the next generation as we look to try and make it to Finals Day once again.”

Entry to Warriors Under 18 matches is FREE for everyone.
