They've already split the SCC into groups of 40ish this season, so with 81 teams north of the line it works out quite nicely tbh Could probably do it as North, Central, SE, and SW. Would weed out the smaller clubs. Maybe more popular in North & Central sections as they would have more chance of inter-league clashes in those early rounds to keep it fresh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the South Region Challenge Cup, involving all teams from tier 5 down in the South Region. ...and the North Region Challenge Cup only lasted two seasons and was abolished in 2009: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SFA_North_and_South_Region_Challenge_Cups so extending an invite to the remaining junior clubs in the soon to be sanctioned Midlands and Grampian leagues to effectively recreate what the SJC used to be and change the name to Scottish Regional Challenge Cup or whatever is fair game, even if the HL and NCL aren't interested in participating initially.

Andy groundhopper Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Is the South Region Cup open to all tiers ? and I'm guessing that clubs don't need to be licensed either ? Maybe open it up to some Amateurs seeing as the Northern lot don't seem interested in a national non league cup, don't know if that would work though. I'd go for the SFA Senior Trophy as a new name 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly Harthill Royal and whoever was sharing with Renfew should be fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
