Aberdeenshire Charity Cups
Page created: 5 June 2020
Updated: 7 December 2023
The Aberdeen Charity Cup was instituted in
1888 and open to the city's clubs. It was renamed the Aberdeenshire Charity Cup in 1893 after Peterhead and Fraserburgh
entered. This was replaced in 1900 as the principal charity competition by the
Lord Provost Sir John Fleming Charity
Shield. The Aberdeenshire Charity
Cup was resuscitated in 1908 by the area's non-league clubs. Both
competitions fell out of favour in the late 1920s but the Shield trophy was
re-used much later, from 1990, and awarded to the winners of the Aberdeenshire
Shield competition.
