Dave Edmunds, chairman of The FA Youth committee, said: “We are delighted that Crawley Town have agreed to stage The FA County Youth Cup Final. We are sure that the players from both associations will appreciate being able to perform at a Football League arena.

“We’d like to thank Crawley Town for their cooperation in staging the game.”

Colbran and Bachelor were on target in the last round as Sussex booked their place in the final with a 3-2 extra-time win over last year’s winners Cheshire.
