Oxford University Association Football Club

The Parks to host Friday's Cuppers semi-final showdowns

Both of this year's Slaughter and May Cuppers semi-finals will be held in the Parks, with simultaneous 2pm kick-offs. This has been initiated to make the day a real football occasion in Oxford, with two of the most keenly fought contests of the year taking place on adjacent pitches within easy walking distance of the city centre - enabling all those with an interest in college football the chance to attend.

On the Teddy Hall pitch (nearest Keble), St Catz will face the unenviable task of attempting to upset the Worcester juggernaught, although they may be spurred on by the expected absence through injury of one of Worcester's most potent weapons. On the Centaurs pitch, LMH, still awaiting their maiden Cuppers win, will meet 12-time winners Teddy Hall.

The winners will advance to the final at Iffley Road on Monday of 8th week (3rd March).
