ProKit UK Essex Olympian League Premier Division Leaders, Rayleigh Town, will host either Harold Wood Athletic or Tiptree Heath in the semi-finals of the BBC Essex Saturday Premier Cup after the draw was broadcast by the competition’s supporters on Friday 16th February.

Rayleigh, impressive 3-2 victors at holders Shenfield in the quarter-finals, await the winners of the rearranged Harold Wood and Tiptree clash on Saturday 24th February to discover who they meet next. The 2024 final will take place at Billericay Town FC on Wednesday 17th April, and the remaining teams will all be motivated to take those last few steps and reach the showpiece finale.

Brightlingsea Town, third in the Essex & Suffolk Border League Premier Division, emerged from a nine-goal thriller at home to Catholic United last time out. They await the eventual winners from Heybridge Swifts Reserves, Wakering Sports and Woodford Town Reserves to establish where they travel to in the final four.

There were two special guests to assist with the draw proceedings. Victoria Polley from BBC Essex was responsible for the home clubs, whilst the Essex County FA’s Ben Rolph pulled out the away clubs. Those semi-finals are due to take place on Saturday 9th March.
