Pearson will need little introduction as Chinnor is his home club. The 19-year-old tighthead prop started playing at Kingsey Road when he was five and graduated into Gloucester's senior academy last summer. Henry joined up with the Gloucester Rugby Pathway & Hartpury College at 16, and was a key member of the Under 18 team that went on to win the RFU ACE League Championship in 2021/22. He has recently been with our National 1 counterparts Cinderford on dual registration terms.

England U20s Hooker Theobald-Thomas, also 19, joined the Worcester Warriors Academy in the summer of 2021 having previously been part of the Under 18 side which finished third in the Premiership Academy League in 2019/20. Finn has spent time on dual registration with Stourbridge, Coventry and Nottingham, while he made his Warriors debut in the Premiership Cup in November 2021. Following Worcester's administration and suspension, Theobald-Thomas - who can also play in the back row - signed for Gloucester last October.

The duo are in contention to make their debuts on Friday night when we take on Rosslyn Park at Kingsey Road in National 1. To buy your match tickets and book for the pre-match curry, please click HERE.
