Neither of the league's teams in the Norfolk Primary Cup semi-finals could make it past that point. Castle Acre Swifts put on a fine performance but bowed out 3-2 to Old Hunstanton after extra time and, although Thetford Rovers Reserves scored first in their match against Great Yarmouth Town Hall, they could not hold on to the lead and eventually went down 3-1.
