On the live broadcast things should be particularly exciting, with big crowds expected and a high quality of rugby.
The Boys Colts Final pits two sides against each other that know one another well, Wimbledon and Rosslyn Park. The two were both in Group A in the early stages of the competition, each earning victory over Reed’s and last year’s runners up, Farnham.
They then met in a top of the group decider, Rosslyn Park beating Wimbledon 40-31 to qualify top, with Wimbledon going through in second place.
Neither had an easy semi final, Rosslyn Park faced Group B runners up and last year’s champions, Guildford, and earned a brilliant 23-13 victory to reach the final, while Wimbledon had the mighty task of the Group B winners and National Cup semi finalists, Dorking. Like Rosslyn Park though, they were outstanding to secure victory.
It sets up a thrilling final, Rosslyn Park will feel confident having beaten Wimbledon in that group game, but after the high of victory over Dorking in the semis, Wimbledon will arrive with plenty of confidence as well. It could be an outstanding game.
On Thursday in the Girls final things should be equally thrilling. Guildfordians arrive in red hot form after a staggering 80-29 victory over Wimbledon in the semi finals, a performance that marks them out in the competition. Farnham will be confident too though, only once in 2024 have they been defeated and they arrive off the back of a terrifically gusty 29-22 victory over Sutton and Epsom on Sunday, a big performance and one that gives them real momentum ahead of Thursday’s final.
Both sides look strong and play some exciting rugby, so it should be a thrilling conclusion to the week of Surrey Rugby Quins Cup finals at The Stoop, not least as each side also have other teams from their clubs involved through the week as well, Farnham’s U16 Boys are in Monday night’s final, while Guildfordians U16 Girls are involved in a combination side with Streatham & Croydon on Tuesday for the U16 Girls final.
All in all, it should be a fantastic week!
