Westcliff Hardcourts set up a Jubilee Cup final date with Westcliff Lawn after enjoying a straight sets semi-final success.
The Hardcourts saw off the challenge of Thorpe Bay three events to nil when the two clubs finally played their semi-final on Sunday.
Bad weather postponed the event just before Christmas and the continued rain and snow meant Lawn had to wait to find out who they would face.
The husband-and-wife partnership of Tracey and Simon Chesher proved too strong for Thorpe's Chloe Taylor and Lee Blackman, who lost 6-1 6-1 in the mixed doubles.
Concentration - Richard Barham in Jubilee Cup action
Kris Newbery and Jade Blackman fared slightly better in the ladies' doubles but still lost 6-3 6-3 to Fiona Stone and Dawn Handelaar.
Lance Owen and Richard Barham wrapped up the win with a 6-2 6-2 men's doubles victory over Thorpe coach Jon Lee and Graham Bloomfield.
A date for the final of the Southend & District LTA competition has yet to be set.
