This season will see ten teams competing for the cup. We welcome back Cheddington and Haddenham but Wing have decided not to enter as they under go a period of transition.

Sunday 20th June 2010

The AGM was held last Thursday. The main points to report are that Michael Curtis stood down as treasurer after 42 years in the position, he now becomes a Life Vice President. Stuart Skeggs is now the new treasurer. Jim Styles was also made a Life Vice President. All other positions remain the same.

Cheddington FC and Haddenham FC have re-entered the competition, whilst enquiries from Fairford Leys FC and P&IC FC were discussed. It was decided that they would not be allowed to enter at this time, due to potential qualification and village issues.

It was decided that the list of villages that could participate in the competition be drawn up and circulated to the clubs, for them to use during the season. The list would also be published on the website.

Thursday 10th June 2010

The redesigned website has been lauched today, if you find any problems with the website or mistake please contact us and we will try and correct the problems. All club details will be updated after the AGM once all the entries have been recieved.

Sunday 18th October 2009

Wingrave are through to the semi finals after beating Oving 4-2 after extra time. Wingrave were taken to extra time by a spirited Oving side that came back from 2-0 down to give the holders a scare. Wingrave went 2-0 up with half hour to play, then Paul Perkins left the field injuryed and Oving started to get into the game and were rewarded with two goals from Jesse Beck. Extra time was an even affair and with penalties looking the likely option, Wingrave scored midway throught the second period. With that goal Oving run out of steam and Wingrave sealed the victory in the dying minutes.
