YM Rapids went down to a solitary goal with 15 minutes left after defending extremely well for the entire game. South Reading have walked the division above the Rapids and conceeded very few goals in the process. YM put up a stern test for the Cintra side but lacked the curtting edge going forward and it seemed 1 goal would win the day as it proved.

South Reading will now face Highmoor Ibis reserves in the final at Reading Town on the 22nd of May, which promises to be a tasty affair.
