Yorkshire Tea Village Cup

ANDY Harris hopes Great & Little Tew’s battles so far will hold them in good stead in the first national round of the Yorkshire Tea Village Cup on Sunday.

Tew visit Gloucestershire champions Apperley after sealing the Oxfordshire group with victory over Oxford Downs.

“It is a really tough group to get out of,” said Harris.

“I am told that once you get through, the rest of the games are not always of the same standard.”

Should Tew win, they will be at home to either Wraysbury (Berkshire) or St Fagans (Glamorgan & Gwent) in the last 16.

But Harris said: “We can’t look that far ahead.”
