Warriors Under-18s have made two changes for the visit of Leicester Tigers to Sixways for Saturday’s Premiership Rugby Under-18s Academy League match (kick-off 1.00pm).
James Mann of RGS Worcester returns at full-back after he missed the trip Newcastle Falcons two weeks ago in the only change to the back division.
In the pack Monty Royston returns at loosehead prop with Joe Richardson, who played in that position against Newcastle, moving to the middle of the front row as hooker.
Saturday’s match will be the first of consecutive home matches for the Under-18s with Sale Sharks due at Sixways on February 9.
Saturday’s match has been switched from the Stadium pitch at Sixways to the A&H Pitch and the kick off time has reverted to the original 1pm.
Admission to Warriors Under-18s matches is free.
