Dumbartonshire Cup

including the Dumbartonshire FA Tournament and the Dumbartonshire & District League

At the first AGM of the Dumbartonshire FA in May 1884, the fifteen member clubs agreed to introduce an annual competition for a cup. To prevent clubs from drafting in players, it was decided to adopt the Scottish FA's rule of players having to be registered by 1 August. As the county was home to three of the strongest clubs in the world at the time - Dumbarton, Renton and Vale of Leven - the Dumbartonshire Cup was ranked second only to the Scottish FA Cup in importance.

With around 16 to 19 participants each year, Renton demanded in 1888 that a Qualifying Round be introduced to reduce the number of, what they referred to as meaningless matches. When this was refused they withdrew from the competition and only returned in 1894. A 'qualifying' round as such was introduced from the 1891-92 edition.

At the end of the 19th Century, the competition adopted a league format with the top two playing off in a final. Between 1901 and 1903, the trophy was awarded to the winners of the Dumbartonshire & District League.

The competition continued to be played for right up to the Second World War. However the demise of Vale of Leven, Clydebank and Helensburgh in the 1920s and 1930s left Dumbarton as being the only senior club left in the county. During the 1930s only two clubs would compete in the competition, therefore the 'final' would actually be the only tie played. As the Dumbartonshire FA was disbanded in 1938 the match for the cup in 1939-40 was therefore not 'official', Dumbarton had joined the Stirlingshire FA in 1939.

The Dumbartonshire & District League was a short lived supplementary competition that operated in 1901-02 and 1902-03. The first meeting of the new league took place at the Religious Institute Rooms in Glasgow on 30 January 1902. The six clubs which composed the new league initially included Thornliebank, but as they subsequently dropped out, the first season therefore saw Vale of Leven, Camelon, Renton, Alloa, Bathgate and Renton compete. The league winners were awarded the Dumbartonshire Cup. The meeting saw the following elected as officials:

Honorary President - Col John M Denny, MP for Dumbarton

President - Peter Campbell, Renton FC

Vice-President - George Colquhoun Vale of Leven FC

Secretary and Treasurer - Allan McLean, 186 Middleton Street, Alexandria

Committee - DD Dalglish, Thornliebank FC and D Nicol, Camelon FC

Also here are results of the Dumbartonshire FA Tournament, a one-off competition between member clubs of the Dumbartonshire FA to help raise funds for the Association.
