FC Fochabers are aiming to complete a remarkable Moray Welfare treble when they take on Hopeman in the WJ Tewnion Memorial Trophy final.

The duo will clash at Lossiemouth's Grant Park on Friday night, two weeks after Fochabers beat Hopeman 7-2 in the Mike Simpson Memorial Trophy to secure a league and cup double.

The Rockets secured the league title on the last day of the campaign, beating RAF Lossiemouth 4-2 away from home to finish above them and Hopeman on head-to-head records.

At one point, Fochabers trailed RAF Lossie by 16 points having dropped 10 points in their opening six matches. Since then they have won all 15 of their last 16 matches in all competitions.

The game kicks off at 7.30pm. Entry is £4, cash only.
