North Midlands Under-16s have reshuffled their side for their final county match of the season against Staffordshire at Bromsgrove's Finstall Park ground on Monday November 23 (7.30pm).
They have made eight changes - four in the pack - to the side that was narrowly beaten by Leicestershire in the Super Sunday event at Broadstreet last weekend for a game that will afford a last chance to players to impress the watching Midlands selectors.
Into the front row come hooker Trevor Chard and tighthead prop Jacob Wilkes with Jack Nuttall and Mat Masters lining up in the back-row.
The back division has a new-look about it with Jack Bruten moving from full-back to the left wing to accommodate the return of Chris Fensome.
Alex Rumsey switches from the right wing to form a new centre pairing with Jack Wardle with Jamahl Lynch taking his place on the wing. Tom Sharwood returns at fly-half in place of Kieran Pinches who is among the replacements.
North Midlands Under-16s: 15 Chris Fensome (Bishop Challoner Sports College and Greater Birmingham); 14 Jamahl Lynch (Kings Norton Boys School and Greater Birmingham), 13 Alex Rumsey (Minster College and Herefordshire), 12 Jack Wardle (Light Hall School and Greater Birmingham), 11 Jack Bruten (Kingstone HS and Herefordshire); 10 Tom Sharwood (Bishop Perowne and Worcestershire), 9 Sam Waltier (Bromsgrove School and Worcestershire); 1 Rob Higgins (Church Stretton School and Shropshire), 2 Trevor Chard (Church Stretton School and Shropshire), 3 Jacob Wilkes (Bridgnorth End School and Shropshire), 4 Jacob Bates (Charlton School and Shropshire), 5 Jack Fletcher (Aylestone School and Herefordshire), 6 Daniel Young (Bromsgrove School and Worcestershire), 7 Jack Nuttall (King's Worcester and Worcestershire), 8 Matt Master (Idsall School and Shropshire).
