The LFA Cup semi has been drawn

Longridge Town will host National League North side Southport at Inglewhite Road as both teams battle for a place in the Lancashire Challenge Trophy Final.

This comes after a stunning penalty shootout win for the Ridge against two divisions higher Lancaster City.

The tie will take place the week commencing the 3rd of March, with the day and date yet to be decided.

Just as Town, the Sandgrounders have had to overcome two challenges thus far, besting Nelson and Bamber Bridge.

In the history of the competition, Southport are joint second for the most wins with 11.

Their most recent came in 2023.

The other semi final has been confirmed to be Bacup Borough vs Padiham.

Keep an eye out to see when the date is confirmed and get yourselves down to help the boys reach potentially one of the biggest games in the club's history.
