Vesty to lead Bath United

Sam Vesty will lead Bath United into their final Aviva A League match of the season this evening as Harlequins A visit the Recreation Ground, kick-off 19.30.

Vesty starts at inside centre, with recent signing Semesa Rokoduguni outside him. Olly Woodburn and Richard Lane take their place on the wings, with Jack Cuthbert named at fullback. Chris Cook is joined in the half-backs by Tom Heathcote.

Up front, Brett Sharman is selected at hooker, with Ken Dowding and Kevin Griffin either side of him. Jake Oldaker and Olly Parkinson team up in the second row, with Tom Dunn shifting from his more familiar loosehead position to the blindside. James Tyas comes in at openside, as Joe Buckle completes the scrum.

Entry to the Rec for tonight's match is free, and we have a very special curtain raiser Under 18s game beforehand as Prior Park College take on Sherborne School. Kick-off for this game is 17.00, with gates opening at 16.00.
