Tuesday 19th May, Coles Lane, Sutton Coldfield, 7:30pm kick off

The time has come for the first very Birmingham Communities League Cup Final

Two of the leagues oldest teams; Athletic Midlands (formerly Classic XI) and Sporting Sandwell.

Sporting Sandwell, captained by BCL Chairman Asif Hussain, will be desperate to finish their season on a high on what had been so far a disappointing year in not making the Communities Champions League and not really pushing the top two harder. Will important Sporting Sandwell players like Paul Graham, Karl Johnson and Captain Asif Hussain rise up to the challenge?

League Champions and Communities Champions League Finalists Athletic Midlands are on the march to the treble, trying to cap off what has been an undefeated season.

Athletic made their way through the cup rounds starting in the preliminaries. The league winners are still on for the treble after they negotiated their way through Communities Champions League semi-final opponents HES United in a match they dominated from start to finish, although were made to threat in the last 10 minutes. Can they finish the season with and unprecedented treble? Can Shak lead his boys to another piece of silverware?

Sporting Sandwell needed extra time to get through their semi final again Saltley Stallions B. They may need to step up their performance considering Athletic are still undefeated. All we know is this will be another classic communities league game.

Who will bring the bigger following? Athletic brought fantastic support to their Communities Champions League Semi Final vs HES United helping them over the line in the final stages, becoming the 12th man, will that be the deciding factor Tuesday night. Let us know you're coming on Facebook
