Pontypridd will face London Wasps, and Saracens take on Bath Rugby in the PARKER PEN CHALLENGE CUP semi-finals. This weekend sees the first legs of the contests, with the return legs being staged a fortnight later.
In the PARKER PEN SHIELD Caerphilly play Petrarca Padova in one semi final, and it’s an all-French affair in the other as Castres Olympique take on Pau.

“The decision to stage both the finals on the same day at the Madejski Stadium will create a magnificent atmosphere and two European finals at the same venue will double the value of the occasion,” said Jean-Pierre Lux, ERC Chairman.
“We believe the supporters of the four teams in the two finals will turn it into a very special and festive European club rugby day – with the winner of the PARKER PEN CHALLENGE CUP also automatically qualifying for the 2003 / 2004 Heineken Cup tournament.”
