WILL Cave and Tom Price come into the starting line-up as our First XV sign off their 2022/23 campaign at home to Darlington Mowden Park tomorrow.
The duo are the only changes from the side which began last Saturday's victory at Bishop's Stortford as we bid to end our National 1 season with a sixth win in seven matches.
Cave will start at openside flanker, with Price at inside centre in place of the injured Will Blakemore (shoulder). Tomorrow will also be hooker Reece Marshall's final appearance for Chinnor as he hangs up his playing boots to become the Director of Rugby at his hometown club, Dunstablians.
On the bench, flanker/lock Conor Brockschmidt returns from five weeks out with a hamstring problem, while scrum-half Greg Goodfellow is back in the mix.
We name the same front row for the third game in a row in Keston Lines, Marshall and Josh McNulty, while James Down and Andy Berry continue at lock.
Cave joins Finn Theobald-Thomas and Willie Ryan in the back row, who are at blindside flanker and No 8 respectively.
Price is the only change in the backs, so Luke Carter and Jack Walsh continue their half-back partnership. Kieran Goss and Nick Smith are our wingers, with Jason Worrall at 13 and Will Feeney at full-back.
Joining Brockschmidt and Goodfellow among the replacements are Mark Darlington, Bradley Harewood and Max Heathman.
Join us for our Family Fun Day tomorrow as our First XV finish their 2022/23 campaign. You can buy your tickets HERE.
