Conference Dates Online

14:48 GMT, Wednesday, 25 June 08. County Cups

Clubs bidding for silverware can begin to plan their route to the Final now that the BCFA Cup Conference Dates for 2008-09 have been published on birminghamfa.com!

In a break from tradition, this season's Womens and the Saturday Vase Cup Finals join the Senior, Midweek Floodlit and Midweek Youth Cup Finals "on the road".

All will be midweek fixtures at venues across the County, whilst the remaining 8 titles will be awarded at BCFA HQ, Great Barr.

Clubs at all levels are given the opportunity to compete on a regional basis thanks to the 13 competitions organised by Birmingham County FA, providing an alternative to clubs' regular league programmes.

The Senior Challenge Cup is one of the longest running football knockout competitions, first presented in 1876.  It involves some of the region's top teams - including current holders Birmingham City FC who beat Burton Albion 5-0 at St Andrews in April (photo).

The draws for the 2008-09 competitions will be published during the summer, but in the meantime those important dates for your diary can be viewed by clicking on the link (right).
