“Setting this team up and working with these boys has been a great pleasure. The commitment and hard work from every player has been astonishing, and I am pleased to see them rewarded with their first league cup final.

“To reach a final is something the players should be proud of, and I hope they enjoy their day out.” The final, against Somersall Junior Blues, is at Matlock Town FC on Bank Holiday Monday, May 7 (kick-off 10.15 am).
