21 Oct 2023. Worcestershire had difficulties in recruiting players for this match and captains agreed to play over 8 boards only. New captain Aiden Griffiths (Worcester) was the only player to score. The Worcestershire team featured several new players: Paul Serafini (Worcester) Dan Pulley (Kidderminster) Jonah Brown (), and Luke Elsden (Worcester). In spite of this heavy loss it is likely that Worcestershire will be invited to play in the national stage of the u1450 county tem competition.
