Horsham FC Women are hoping to create more history for the club in this evening’s (May 18) SCWGFL Challenge Cup final.

The Hornets aim to crown a fantastic first season in women’s football with silverware when they meet Saltdean United’s Development Squad at Lancing’s Culver Road.

An excellent debut SCWGFL Premier campaign saw Horsham finish third – but the Hornets will be meeting a Saltdean side who topped the table after losing just once in the league all season.
