Cardiff Blues have received confirmation from the ERC of the date and kick off time for their Amlin Challenge Cup Semi-final match against London Wasps.
The Blues will face Wasps on Saturday 1 May, 6.00pm kick off, at Adams Park, High Wycombe.
Speaking of the draw, Cardiff Blues Director of Rugby, David Young, said
“We want to finish the season strongly and we want to give this competition our best shot. We knew the draw was going to be away and to win this competition you have to play at some difficult places and they are not going to get much tougher than Wasps away.”
“They’ve still got star players and a ruthless edge and I’m sure we won’t be a surprise package for them with Shaun Edwards coaching a lot of our players for Wales. It’s a big game for us and we’d like to go that one step further.”
“We had great support up in Newcastle for the quarter final and hopefully the fans will turn out in force again up at Wasps.”
