Chinnor Academy produced a creditable performance in losing 22-11 to Worcester Warriors Under 19s at Sixways.

Worcester went into a 10-0 lead as Chinnor's lack of match practice told.

The visitors then rallied with under 17 scrum half Ryan Binnie impressing on his academy debut.

Thad Cooper kicked a penalty after wing Alex Woodhouse went on a mazy run.

Good work from Paul Davies, Jordan Wood, Mark Wilkinson and Ches Penny ended with Cooper slotting another penalty.

Worcester bagged a converted try before the break and added a third score in the second half.

Chinnor's battling was rewarded when skipper Sam Ludgate powered over in the corner.
