DATES have been confirmed for the Premiership KO Cup Final as holders Leicester and Ipswich contest the silverware.
The Watling JCB Lions were victorious in the northern section thanks mainly to an away win at Sheffield and then holding off the Tigers’ recovery efforts in a dramatic return fixture in the East Midlands.
Meanwhile the Witches, who last lifted the Cup in 2023, completed a 100 per cent record in the southern section with home and away wins over King’s Lynn and Northampton.
As in 2025 when Leicester defeated King’s Lynn, the Final will take place over one week in late July.
Ipswich will host the first leg at Foxhall on Monday July 27, with the return taking place at the Hydroscand Arena, Beaumont Park on Thursday July 30.
PREMIERSHIP KO CUP FINAL:
MONDAY JULY 27 – 1st leg – Ipswich v Leicester 7.30
