FA Sunday Cup

anybody know how much to enter and when it has to be in by??

Pretty sure it's 40£ and enter online

August sometime

I think you have to be in the Premier Division as well. Not suited to a team wanting to start at the bottom.

The league should help each club out who wants to enter I'd like star Tomlin to enter could both go very far

I think it's to expensive don't u have to pay the away teams travel and all that??

It can end up being very expensive if you were to get a home draw. You'd have to play it at a 'proper ground' with barriers and refreshments etc, so unless your pitch is already like that it's likely to be an additional cost. Then you have to pay for all officials as well as the away teams travel. You do get a match grant of either £250 or £300 though I think. And also expenses are supposed to be worked out some way between both clubs.

On the other hand, and luckily, this has been us in every round so far, you could be drawn away. You get your travel paid for and a Match Grant of £200 (I think) win or lose.

Basically, you really want an away draw then you actually make money. However, that's the gamble you take if/when entering.

Hope that helps a little bit.

Yh that's alright mate do u think it's a good experience to enter?

We enjoyed it both years we entered.

First year we were drawn away against a Nottingham side, that was a good day out although we lost 2-1 very late on.

Second year we were away at Birstall Stamford first round, thought we'd get hammered but somehow won. Then drawn away at a team near Dunstable. We lost but again was a great day out.

It is all about the draw but I'd say overall it's worth it.

No brainier enter
Every home club gets 250 every away club gets 200 every round !
Home clubs pay £2 / £3 per mile or or the the coach fee upon receipt which ever is cheaper !!
Or
40p per mile maximum or 5 cars I think ! There are rules anyway

So if a club travels 50 mile from post code to post code you will have to pay 150 or if they travel by coach and coach is 140 you'll pay 140 if coach is 200 you'll pay 150 hope Iam right ??

Plus gate attendance has to be spilt between home and away club with money to be send within 7-14 days but
Sure clubs take 100 on gate only declare 50 anyway
....
And you need an account in the clubs names cheque from fa comes as I.e pay Tomlin all star ECT.....

I could be wrong on all this this was what I read when I entered Hoskins

The first round draw has been made and there are seven ties involving Leicestershire sides:

Bilsthorpe Celtic v FC Wyvern Arms
Sporting Dynamo v OJM
Quorn Royals v Gedling Inn
Wymeswold v Nuthall
Punchbowl OB v Birstall Stamford
Albion v Hundred Acre
Halfway v Thurmaston WMP 2009

In addition Star & Garter have a Round 1 bye

Halfway are Premier Division members of the Festival League based in the Birmingham area. They have nominated Boldmere St Michaels as their home pitch for this competition, ailthough they play their league fixtures at Aston University

The Round 1 match is scheduled for Sunday 19 October with a 200pm kick off, though all of these details are subject to confirmation
