Alan Hancock believes Oxford Harlequins have enough quality to avoid relegation.

Harlequins are third from bottom in National League 3 South West and are five points from safety with five games left to play.

Hancock, the club’s head of rugby, said: “I think we will do it.

“Players have got to step up and morale is quite high.

“They are all big games.”
