History
Initially named the NFA Senior Cup, the tournament was renamed in 1981. It was first held in 1883, and was won by Newport Pagnell.[1] The trophy has since been lifted by 24 different sides (not including reserve teams). While Football League clubs Peterborough United and Northampton Town have contested in the past, the majority of entrants are from the lower-leagues of English football.[2]
