Throughout the 2020/21 season, senior men's teams have competed in two separate conferences - the Pacific Conference and the Southern Conference.
The Pacific Conference covers an area from Port Macquarie to Cairns while the Southern Conference covers Sydney.
The top two teams from each conference now meet and battle to be crowned the 2021 SCFL national champions.
Port Macquarie's East Coast Eagles coach Mick Day said the men's squad finished the season on top of the Pacific Conference and will feature this weekend.
"I was really proud of our boys who travelled to Brisbane to compete, sometimes playing three games a day to make up for missing rounds due to the Queensland border closure," he said.
"Yet they remained focused and determined the entire season.
"We are looking forward to playing the finals at our home court, one of the first times that a professional league has been here.
"We have awesome facilities here and we are hoping we can get a massive local crowd supporting the boys."
Highly-fancied teams including Bondi Dragons (Hakoah Futsal Club) - who were undefeated in the Sydney conference and feature Australian Futsalroo players - will also make the trip north.
Play runs from 3pm until 8pm on Saturday and 8am until 1pm on Sunday. Spectators are welcome and admission is free.
