Worcester VI 0 Stratford IV 3
 
The long trip to Worcester saw Stratford start slowly and concede short corner after short corner. The new defensive formation masterminded by in form keeper Dave Dunnettsaw Stratford hold firm. Despite being on the back foot Stratford attacked and a one two between Phil Davey and Man of the Match Giles Stud saw Ben Woodhams score with a crafty deflection.
Shortly afterwards the ageless Nigel Wood drove into the Worcester circle to set up Ed Hogg with the easiest of chances. Worcester kept Stratford on the defensive with Pete Funnell, Simon Cossee and Henry Whetstone all in impervious form. The siege was broken when a scintillating run from Ben Woodhams leaving 3 defenders for dead with outrageous dummies before roofing the shot to make it 3-0 at half time.
In the second half Worcester again laid siege to the Stratford goal. Main Wain and Gordon Cooldown worked tirelessly in defense and despite all Worcester efforts the Stratford fortress withstood all their attacks and for the first time this season Stratford recorded a clean sheet.
