North Midlands Shield holders Bridgnorth have been drawn away to Camp Hill in the quarter-finals of this season’s competition.
Bridgnorth, who beat Stourbridge Lions in last season’s final, began their title defence with a 69-7 win at Woodrush last Saturday.
Stourbridge Lions, who beat Old Saltleians 25-15 in the second round, will now entertain Moseley Oak in the quarter-finals.
A new innovation this season is that sides beaten in the early rounds of the three North Midlands competitions will go forward to a Plate competition.
North Midlands Shield quarter-finals draw:
Kidderminster Carolians v Droitwich, Malvern v Old Yardleians, Camp Hill v Bridgnorth, Stourbridge Lions v Moseley Oak. Ties to be played on the first weekend when neither side is involved in league or RFU Cup matches.
