Hornets flying youth league's flag in final

Horsham’s youngsters are looking forward to representing the Ryman League on Monday night when they take on Dartford in the John Ullmann Memorial Cup Final.

The young Hornets kick off against the Conference club’s youngsters at Southern Counties East League Corinthian FC’s Gay Dawn Farm in Kent at 7.30pm.

Dartford’s U18s reached the final by beating Corinthian FC in a penalty shoot-out after the sides couldn’t be separated in open play. Horsham’s youngsters had an easier passage in the Kent Youth League administered competition with a 4-2 home win over Bearsted on Tuesday night.

A Hornets spokesman said: "Horsham Youth were invited into the cup four years ago and we are proud to represent the Ryman Youth League in this prestigious cup competition. Horsham Youth are the underdogs but will do their best to bring the cup back to Sussex. Good luck to all involved!"
