Worcestershire & Herefordshire withstood another Greater Birmingham fightback to clinch a 19-18 win and a third consecutive North Midlands title.

The Two Counties led 19-10 at half-time but were relieved to hear the final whistle as they were a point ahead.

Stourbridge pair Duncan Kelly and Jonathan Ford, and Kidderminster Carolians player Andrew McLelland scored first-half tries.

And Luctonians' Charlie Meredith added what proved to be a key conversion.
