Hibiscus Coast Raiders premier and reserves men’s teams both finished top of the table in their Sharman Cup championships – it’s the first time in more than 20 years that they have reached their respective finals.
The reserves booked themselves a spot in the Sharman Cup premier reserves grand final with an emphatic 58-28 victory over Mangere East, at home, on August 3. The final will also be played at Raiders’ Stanmore Bay grounds on August 17. Kick-off is at 12.45pm and league fans are encouraged to come and cheer them on.
The premier men have gone unbeaten this season, and their Sharman Cup semi-final versus Ponsonby Ponies was on August 10 (after this paper went to print). A win would see them contest the grand final at Mt Smart Stadium on Friday, August 16.
