BIRMINGHAM'S Academy team will face Cradley Heath on May 13 in their first match of the season.
The Mercom Bulls will race a six-heat second-half challenge against a side representing the Heathens following the Premier Trophy clash between the BRC Roofing Brummies and Stoke.
Club owner Tony Mole said: "It's still a matter of sadness that Cradley Heath are absent from the sport, and personally I've done a great deal of work in an attempt to resurrect them.
"It's good to be able to keep the name alive, Cradley still have a lot of enthusiastic supporters and we look forward to welcoming them to Perry Barr on the night."
