BOSS Chris Cornes hopes Worcester City's local lads can etch their names in history after years of waiting for a chance to shine.
concerns As traditional giants of the Non-League game, City would often cast the net far beyond the patch in pursuit of success, sometimes drawing criticism for not giving enough opportunities to homegrown talent.
Financial while groundsharing outside the city led to voluntary relegation to Step 5 in 2017 and when the reset did not bring expected levels of success, the Worcester-based players bore the brunt more than most.
Players from all corners of the Midlands came and went during some patchy seasons but Cornes, a Worcester man himself, steadied the ship last season and enticed city boys like Kyle Belmonte, Jamie Insall and Logan Stoddart to become to beating heart of the club's Hellenic League challenge.
