With Third division Audley FC already in next week’s WG Parr Trophy Final, Jordan Tarrant’s side were hoping to reach the final of Gooding Accounts sponsored Subsidiary Cup, standing between them and their dream were First division, Lavis FC who themselves lifted the Parr Trophy last season, but have had a poor league campaign finishing in a disappointing 4th place.     

Looking to the cup to rescue their season, a 2-0 victory over Audley has given Aaron Latchem’s team the chance to do just that and although Steeple Ashton may have upset the odds in beating Beeches, they will be massive underdogs when they go head-to-head on May 8th at New Road, Bromham.

Although Lavis could have been 4 or 5 up at the break, they only had a Jack Booth effort and Levi Wood penalty to show for their dominance and they had to defend well in the second half as Audley came back into the game, but over the 90 minutes the better team on the day won.
