For the second week in a row there are two teams at home as the Kingfishers look for their first league win of the season against local rival Claverdon. When Claverdon last visited at the end of last season Redditch were victorious and secured their place in the league. Matt Allen returns to the second row after injury and Stu Hope moves to Hooker in a few changes to the pack. In the back line Ash moves back to 10 with Jack Mertens again partnering Mark Green in the centres.
