Main received a bye in the first round before beating Stocksbridge Park Steels and Hallam to reach the last four.

They currently sit sixth in Division One of the Northern Counties East League and hope to qualify for the end-of-season promotion play-offs.

Rossington’s league clash at home to Nostell MW on Saturday was postponed due to a frozen pitch.

Worksop were promoted out of the NCEL in 2019 and lie sixth in Division One East of the Northern Premier League. The Tigers suffered a 4-0 defeat at Dunston UTS on Saturday.

Tuesday night’s game kicks off at 7.45pm. Maltby Main face Parkgate in the other semi-final.
