Barrow Raiders Ladies have made it through to the Women's Championship Grand Final.
Raiders defeated Widnes Vikings' women's side 16-6 at the Matt Johnson Prestige Stadium to earn their final berth.
Barrow got off to the best possible start with Sammy Norman bagging two tries to give them an 8-0 lead.
Michelle Larkin was the next over the try line and her four-pointer ensured that Barrow had the advantage at the break, leading 12-0.
A Jodie Litherland penalty edged them further ahead as the second half started but then Widnes got their first points on the board with a penalty of their own.
Litherland slotted over a second to keep a 14 point advantage but then back came the Vikings.
In the end, although Widnes did manage to break through the Barrow defence to get a try, the Raiders had done enough, with a 16-6 victory.
