All the league’s clubs will be backing Harryville Homers in their quest to become the first SML team to land the biggest prize in junior football, the Coca-Cola Junior Cup.

A large number of players and officials of other clubs watched the Homers’ semi-final victory over York Road Loughside and a large contingent is expected to travel to Mill Meadow, Castledawson, for next Monday’s final against cup holders Strathroy Harps.

Homers will go into that game fully focused, with the possible distraction of their Arkmedia Division One title quest having been put to bed on Saturday when they defeated nearest challengers Carniny Rangers 2-0 to win their first championship for 24 years.
