Tenby reached their first ever Senior Cup final with a 2-0 win over Monkton Swifts at the Conygar Bridge Meadow on Tuesday night.
The Seasiders weathered an early storm by the Swifts to sneak into the lead courtesy of a Sam Christopher volley on 26 minutes, before a close tap-in near the end ensured an historic moment for the club.
Since the turn of the year, Tenby have been the form team of Pembrokeshire, having scored goals for fun, with the weekend warm-up for this game being an 8-0 walloping of Saundersfoot.
There goals didn't flow quite so easily this time as the Swifts utilised their experience to nullify any threats that the free-running Seasiders posed.
Richard Perry almost got on the score sheet for Tenby, but his shot flew over the crossbar and Lee Brockway showcased his abilities by having his shot crash off the bar.
Thereafter, few chances came the Swifts' way as Tenby seized control. Billy Vaughan and Daryl Mansbridge all went close, but it was Christopher's efforts that proved decisive in the end.
Tenby will play either Merlins Bridge or last year's winners Johnston in the final.
