The best young players from Staffordshire and Norfolk will be taking to the field at a Premier League venue in April.

  • 2pm, Saturday 14 April 2018
  • bet365 Stadium, Stoke

Host county Staffordshire sealed their place in the final last month with a 5-2 victory away at Berks & Bucks.

And following Norfolk’s 3-1 victory over Gloucestershire in their semi-final at the weekend, the teams can now turn their attention to the final on Saturday 14 April.

It’s a repeat of the 2011 County Youth Cup Final too, when Norfolk ran out as winners.

The County Youth Cup is open to U18 players who are born or registered for a club in their county. But players who are under written contract at a club are ineligible.

Admission to the Q-railing Stand on the day is priced at £5 for Adults and £1 for U16s. Turnstiles will open at 12.30pm.
