Thanet Wanderers 20 Canterbury 52
A HAT-TRICK of tries by winger Andy Pratt and six conversions from James Reilly helped holders Canterbury into the Shepherd Neame Kent Cup final with a 52-20 win at St Peters Recreation Ground on Saturday.
Superior skills told in the end, but at one stage Thanet were only six points adrift and still very much in the game. However, three tries in four minutes swung the match Canterbury's way.
Michael Melford, Pat Sykes and Gert De Kock scored the visitors' other tries.
Blackheath beat Westcombe Park in the weekend's other semi-final with the final at Maidstone on Easter Saturday, April 7.
