Puni and Waiuku will battle it out for the Sid Marshall Cup at Navigation Homes Stadium on Saturday in the last club rugby final of the year.

The two sides won through their respective semi-finals – Puni over Te Kohanga and Waiuku over Manurewa – to book their spot in the Cup final.

There is some recent history between the two clubs, with a number of players having represented both teams in the past few seasons.

The Sid Marshall Cup was introduced this season. It saw 10 clubs contest the opening round before splitting into a top five and bottom five. The top five played for the Sid Marshall Shield – won by Te Kauwhata last weekend – while the Cup will be decided this weekend.

Meanwhile Ardmore-Marst and Pukekohe will battle it out in the final of the Presidents grade – also being played at Navigation Homes Stadium.
