The Banffshire FA was formed on 11 Oct 1890 at a meeting of clubs at the Longmore Hall in Keith. Mr A Davidson of the town's Commercial Hotel donated a silver cup which was made by watchmaker J Herd of Keith for a competition between the association's clubs which was won by Keith. The Association purchased a new trophy in November 1891 for the second competition which was also won by Keith. The FA then appeared to lapse. It was re-formed in 1908 and a trophy was donated by Mr Munro of the Gordon Arms Hotel in Keith.
