Hertfordshire stand between Cornwall and a 5th successive Final appearance.

The County Championship's biggest crowd of the season is expected to decend on Camborne's Recreation Ground this Saturday where Cornwall take on Hertfordshire.
The 12 matches played so far have attracted just over 5,000 supporters which is an average of 420 per game. Cornwall's victory over Devon last week at Ivybridge was watched by 945 (the largest attendance so far) with 2/3rds of the crowd wearing the Black & Gold of the Duchy.
That crowd will be eclipsed this weekend with around 3,000 expected at the REC with a trip to Twickenham awaiting the victors.

Cornwall have the competitions joint leading points scorer Camborne's own David Mankee (23 points) in the lineup. The Fly half will be hoping playing on his home ground will give him the edge, especially when kicking into the West Bank corner.

With the grandstand back to it's full capacity the County are hoping to see the 750 seats sold creating terrific atmosphere.
There will be food and drink available at the REC as well as in the clubhouse and Trelawney's Army will have a merchandise stall at the ground.

The gates open at 12.30 with the clubhouse open from 12 noon. Admission is £10 (payable on the gate) with Grandstand tickets priced at an additional £5.
