We now know the two finalists for the SCAPA Cup final which will be held on presentation night on Saturday 10th May.
Little Hadham who will be attempting to win the trophy for the very first time face Symonds Green who are looking to defend their title.
Little Hadham had to get past higher opposition in Braughing in the quarter final. They won the home leg 8-0 (38-24) and were able to score the point required in the second leg as they lost 6-2 (37-26) to advance to the semi final 10-6 (64-61) on aggregate. In the semi final they faced Shenley who were having a really promising second half to the season. They managed to secure a 12-4 (64-50) victory over the two legs and advanced through to the final.
Symonds Green faced Stanstead Abbotts who they defeated in last years final in the last 8. They lost the first leg 6-2 (46-17) but managed to battle back in the return leg taking it 7-1 (37-23) to secure on aggregate victory of 9-7 (54-69). In the semi final they faced Essendon and after a 4-4 draw away from home secured an 8-0 victory at home to win 12-4 (76-43) overall and advance to the final again.
You would have to say that Symonds Green go in to the match as favourites as they are the 1st division while Little Hadham are in the 2nd. However, Symonds Green struggled for league form this year and are arguably not as strong in previous seasons. Little Hadham narrowly missed out on promotion from the 2nd division and have already beaten higher opposition this season. Lets hope for a competitive match to get the presentation evening off to a good start.
