Has anybody got Durham Football Association Trophies?, the Challenge Cup, Trophy (the old amatuer cup), Minor (senior cup) & Junior Cup
Head Wrightsons Juniors won the North Riding Minor Cup in 1958 beating South Bank Juniors at Ayresome Park, Head Wrightsons senior teams always done well in the North Riding Amateur & Sunday Cups in the 60s.
Are these some sort of sporting trophies?Patricia F
A full set of North Riding F.A.Trophies are the Minor u18, Junior u18, Sunday, Amateur & Senior Cup in the 50/60s.
Anon the Minor Cup was for the under 16 years teams, the first year out of Schools football. The Sunday Cup is a later edition of the North Riding Trophies with this Sunday Trophy that would make a full set of Five Trophies. These trophies are Yorkshire County Football Trophies and are still competed for today with a great sense of achievement when you win one, Boro, York City, Whitby Town, South Bank Billingham Synthonia, Scarborough and Stockton all competed for the Senior Cup Trophy every year. Junior Teams from Middlesbrough, Stockton, Billingham and Stockton as well as teams from all over the North Riding compete for the other Trophies. I think Stockton’s last win was 1960 when they beat both Boro and York City in the semi final and Final.
The North Riding Minor Cup was u18 in 1958, like I said Head Wrightsons Juniors beat South Bank Juniors at Ayresome Park.
Anon in 1950/51 season the Minor Cup was for under 16 years players as I played in the team that won the Cup for South Bank ST Peters Juniors the North Riding Junior Cup was for under 18 years players as I won this cup with South Bank Juniors in 1952/53. I doubt whether these age brackets have changed over the years but would appreciate any information to the contrary
Ben I am not saying you wrong, but later they must have changed the age group, Head Wrightsons Juniors u18 are on this website with the North Riding Minor Cup submitted by George Outhwaite with the cup.
