Govan Competitions
Page created: 5 July 2020
Updated: 2 February 2021
Senior competitions open to clubs in the Govan
district of Glasgow were the Govan & Ibrox Cup,
which was donated by a Mr Archer, the Govan Jubilee Cup and the Govan Charity
Cup.
Similarly competitions were also organised by
the Govan Jubilee FA and the Govan & Plantation Junior FA.
The Kirkwood Shield (also known as the Govan
& District Shield) was donated by the Provost Kirkwood in September 1893.
In 1899 it was opened up to clubs from the immediate surrounding areas but
although this rule was to have been suspended in 1905-06 Clydebank and Yoker Athletic still entered. In 1907 the competition was
suspended and when it was restarted in 1919 entry was opened up to all clubs
within the Glasgow and district.
The Govan & Plantation Junior Cup was also
known as the Cochrane Cup, after Francis Cochrane who presented the Association
with the trophy in September 1885.
The Govan Jubilee FA organised both Senior and Junior cups, both presented by Robert Hunter of Govan and
were restricted to clubs from Govan, Partick, Whitinch and Renfrew.
In August 1897 a Govan Junior League was formed but it only lasted for one season
and was probably unfinished
