The Abbotsford Falcons celebrate a win in the semifinal on Sunday.

The Abbotsford Falcons peewee black football team will play for a provincial title on Sunday in Coquitlam.

The Falcons qualified for the big game with a 14-0 victory over the North Surrey Cardinals on Nov. 25.

After a scoreless first half, Elijah Black scored the first touchdown of the game late in the third quarter. Jaiden Sharma added the extra point kick.

The Falcons defence continued to stifle the Cardinals in the fourth quarter, with Black adding his second touchdown of the game to give the Falcons the win.

Abbotsford now takes on the South Side Dawgs from Nanaimo in the provincial final. The game kicks off at 10 a.m. on Sunday at Percy Perry Stadium in Coquitlam.
