The pair, who are both 17, cannot be named due to their age but are accused of injuring and threatening a man and a woman by driving a stolen car at them.
One of the teenage boys was additionally charged with theft of a motor vehicle - it is believed the car was taken from Stotfold Drive in Thurnscoe.
Both boys will appear at Barnsley Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
