KINGOWER and Boort Yando are favoured to meet in the Upper Loddon Cricket Association junior grand final on February 22 after the semi-final venues were announced.
Unbeaten Boort Yando will host Wedderburn Band in one semi-final, while Kingower will be at home to Bridgewater Bulls.
Both matches are two-day affairs.
The Magpies dominated the competition with eight wins and no losses, and they are expected to easily dispense with Wedderburn, which finished last in the four-team league without a victory.
On form, Kingower, with five wins and three losses, should account for the Bulls (3-5), but as Arnold proved in the seniors last season by winning the title after finishing last in a four-team competition, there are no guarantees when every side makes the finals.
If the results are as expected, Boort Yando and Kingower would meet in the one-day grand final at Bridgewater.
The Bridgey oval is in excellent knick, with a good covering of grass given the looming start of the football season.
Should Boort play Bridgewater in the final, the match would be played at Arnold, which would also host the game if Wedderburn and Bridgewater were to meet.
Kingover versus Wedderburn would be played at Bridgewater.
