Worcester Warriors have followed in the footsteps of Aviva Premiership rivals Saracens and written their own club song.
The video which accompanies the tune tells the story of a young fan who wakes up to find Maximus, the club's mascot, outside his window and the duo walk through Worcester town centre, where they are joined by a host of fans. The new anthem will be premiered before their match against London Irish this weekend and the composer, Andrew Kristy, is hopeful the crowd will take to it.
"The stars have really aligned themselves for this project! Given the compact time-scale, everything has fallen into place remarkably well," Kristy said. "Personally I am very pleased with the finished track - its power comes from everyone involved putting in their own passion and inspiration. My sincere thanks goes to all who have joined me on this journey to create Worcester Warriors' new anthem. "Now it's time for the fans to dust off their voices and raise the roof. Over to you - sing and enjoy!"
We are Warriors lyrics:
We are Warriors
Come to the fight,
Hard into tackle
Victory is in sight.
Honour and Glory are
What we're fighting for:
For Worcester, for family,
For friends and neighbours all.
WE ARE WARRIORS
WARRIORS
WARRIORS
We are Warriors
This is our time,
Hear our battle cry,
For this will be our sign.
Brothers from Worcester,
Famous Gold and Blues,
We are the chosen,
Proud and Fearless, True.
WE ARE WARRIORS
WARRIORS
GOLD AND BLUES
WARRIORS
GOLD AND BLUES
WARRIORS
Young blood for the future
From this pleasant land.
Training together,
Touchdown for the try.
(I'll show you how to play)
You'll show me how to win.
(I'll train you how to win)
WE ARE WARRIORS
WARRIORS
Men with lifted hearts,
Spit and sinew strong.
Shoulder to shoulder,
Crushing, mighty scrum.
Strengthen our purpose,
Put us to the test.
Together we're stronger,
Together we're the best.
WE ARE WARRIORS
WARRIORS
GOLD AND BLUES
WARRIORS
HONOUR, GLORY
WARRIORS

WARRIORS
WE ARE WARRIORS.
