FOOTBALL: Sides hope for bumper crowds to mark Non-League Football Day

Worcester Editorial 25th Mar, 2023   0

A FEAST of football is on offer this weekend in Worcester to mark Non-League Football Day.

Both Worcester City and Worcester Raiders will take to the field on Saturday (March 25) in the hope of bumper crowds with the absence of top-flight football because of the international break.

City welcome Studley to Claines Lane on the back of a 4-1 reverse to free-scoring Racing Club Warwick while Westfields are the visitors to Sixways to face Raiders.

Karl Gormley’s men will be looking to return to winning ways following a 1-1 draw at Brinscombe and Thrupp.

Title-chasing Malvern Town meanwhile retained their narrow one point lead over challengers Cribbs with a 3-0 win over Hereford Pegasus in the Hellenic League Premier Division.




Goals from Lewis Spurrier, Ben Hayes and Matthew Turner sealed the points for the hosts who travel to Longlevens on Saturday.

A home game with Royal Wooton Bassett Town is up next for the Bristol side who remain a point behind the Hillsiders with two games in hand.
