Everything about The Fa National League System Cup totally explained
The
FA National League System Cup is a
football competition run by
The Football Association. It was created in the
2003-04 season to provide an
English representative in the
UEFA Regions Cup.
In previous Regions Cups, the FA had nominated a team to take part; in the
2002-03 season it was a
Kent County League XI. UEFA decreed that in the future all Regions Cup entrants must have won a national competition, and so the NLS Cup was formed.
The cup is contested by representative sides from leagues at level 7 of the
National League System with a few other leagues permitted by the
FA. That is roughly at the county level or eleventh overall tier of the
English football league system. The first final was held on
May 8,
2004, and was won by the
Mid Cheshire League, who beat the
Cambridgeshire County League 2-0.
The second final was held on
May 7,
2006 at Cambridge United's
Abbey Stadium, and saw the Cambridgeshire County League and
Isle of Man Football League compete. The Isle of Man comfortably won the fixture with four goals in the second half and claimed the trophy with a final score of 4-0. The team travelled to the
Czech Republic in April 2007 for the Intermediary Round of the
UEFA Regions Cup. After a 1-2 defeat to the
Bratislava team (
Slovakia) a 3-2 win over the hosting
Hrádec Kralove team left the side with a chance of qualifying for the finals. Unfortunately a 0-1 loss to
Northern Ireland's Eastern Region ended their hopes.
The 2008 final was held at
Coventry City's
Ricoh Arena on Saturday 3 May. The
Southern Amateur League won the competition at the first attempt after winning a penalty shoot-out 4-2 following a 1-1 draw. The SAL team travel to
Turin in October 2008 for the Intermediary Round of the
UEFA Regions Cup where that'll take on representatives from
Italy,
Scotland and the
Republic of Ireland.
