Carrow Road Cup Finals Announced
Norfolk County FA today released the dates of their annual County Cup Finals including those played at the home of Norwich City.
The big news is that the Norfolk Senior Cup final will be played at Carrow Road on Monday 23 March making it the second in the programme of County Cup Finals. This is during the next international break meaning that it will be a great opportunity to support grassroots football at Norfolk’s most prestigious football venue.
The other Finals held at Carrow Road will take place in May, all with kick off times of 7:45pm making for some great finals being played under the lights. The Norfolk Junior Cup and Norfolk Women’s Cup are to be played on Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th respectively with the Norfolk Sunday Senior Cup being played the following Monday.
Norfolk County FA Chairman, Michael Banham said: “We’re really excited about this year’s calendar of County Cup finals and hope everyone will get on board in supporting grassroots football through to the end of the season.”
“For us to be hosting four finals at Carrow Road once again isn’t something we should take for granted and we are extremely grateful to Norwich City Football Club for providing Norfolk Football with this fantastic opportunity.”
“With the Senior Cup being played so early on in our calendar of Finals and also during the international break, we hope this presents a real opportunity for us to get a bumper crowd at Carrow Road!”
Head of Commercial Development at Norwich City, Ben Tunnell said: “We’re delighted to again be hosting the Norfolk County FA’s County Cup finals at Carrow Road. We are fortunate and proud that we can afford local grass roots football Clubs the opportunity to compete at a Premier League stadium, we know how important the competitions are to both the clubs and players. We’ll be keeping a close eye on how the competitions progress and wish all those involved the best of luck in reaching Carrow Road.”
