With the final buzzer the books closed on a wonderful Scottish Cup weekend at the Centre for Sport & Exercise on the campus of the University of Edinburgh. There were great team performances and stand out players. Fantastic crowds and fun all around.
St Mirren Reid Kerr College walk away with an amazing four Scottish Cups. Their Cadette Women, Cadet Men and Junior Women all won RAF Scottish Cups, and their Senior Women brought a Sportserve Scottish Cup as well. City of Edinburgh had a great tournament also. Their Junior Men turned in one of their strongest peformances of the year to earn their RAF Scottish Cup and the Kings Senior Men put on show in the final game of the weekend to earn their second straight Sportserve Scottish Cup crown. The Banchory Stags and Midlothian Saints were victorious in the Chairman's Cups competitions, and even though they did not bring home a cup, the Clark Eriksson Fury fielded an impressive three teams in the field.
Win or lose we saw great effort and are proud of all the participants and grateful to all of the volunteers who made this weekend happen. We are also grateful to all the parents and partners who supported the players and coaches and officials who have worked so hard this season to reach this point. The game needs all of us, and we appreciate your service.
