The Football Times Cup was named after "The Football Times" – a Saturday evening football results and general news ] produced by Highland News Ltd for distribution in Inverness and surrounding counties, from 1888 until the late 1960s.
First introduced during the 1923-24 season as a cup competition of the North of Scotland Junior Football Association, introduced as a football cup for competition between juniors clubs from Inverness and the surrounding districts across the North of Scotland.

The title made a brief return in the 1990s as a supplement of Highland News Group publications, including the Highland News, North Star and Lochaber News, but was again fazed out and ceased to exist by the 2000s.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Highland News and Football Times |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0005769/19890805/207/0051 |archive-url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0005769/19890805/207/0051 |archive-date=5 August 1989 |access-date=9 December 2024 |website=British Newspaper Archive {{!}} North Star and Farmers' Chronicle}}</ref>

First introduced the 1923-24 season, the sterling silver Football Times Cup was donated by Highland News Ltd for competition between clubs connected to the ].

Until the 1970s, the trophy was traditionally presented to the winning captain by the editor of the newspaper, or a representative from Highland News.

The Football Times Cup remains the second oldest cup competition to come under the auspices of the North of Scotland Junior FA (now known as the ]), the oldest being the ].


== History == == History ==
At the time of the Football Times Cup's introduction, the ]'s membership was made up in the majority by ] reserve sides, or 'A' combinations, from Inverness or Nairn, along with a select group of junior clubs, such as Nelson, ] (who later became ]) and ].

] 'A' sides continued to dominate the competition until the 1960s when the league's presence grew across the Highlands and membership from clubs outside of the central ] increased.

During the 1993–94 season, with an unprecedented 16 teams holding membership and some clubs facing a campaign of over 40 games, the ] elected to play the Football Times Cup as a ] competition.

Although the format was popular with teams, it immediately returned to an 11-a-side competition the following season.

In 2019-20, the trophy was played for across a group format, split between the North and South of its competing members, along with guest club ]. After all group games were played, the winners of each group played in the final.

Origins

The Football Times Cup was named after "The Football Times" – a Saturday evening football results and general news print newspaper produced by Highland News Ltd for distribution in Inverness and surrounding counties, from 1888 until the late 1960s.

The title made a brief return in the 1990s as a supplement of Highland News Group publications, including the Highland News, North Star and Lochaber News, but was again fazed out and ceased to exist by the 2000s.

First introduced the 1923-24 season, the sterling silver Football Times Cup was donated by Highland News Ltd for competition between clubs connected to the North of Scotland Junior FA.

Until the 1970s, the trophy was traditionally presented to the winning captain by the editor of the newspaper, or a representative from Highland News.

The Football Times Cup remains the second oldest cup competition to come under the auspices of the North of Scotland Junior FA (now known as the North Caledonian League), the oldest being the North Caledonian Cup.

History

At the time of the Football Times Cup's introduction, the North of Scotland Junior FA's membership was made up in the majority by Highland Football League reserve sides, or 'A' combinations, from Inverness or Nairn, along with a select group of junior clubs, such as Nelson, Dingwall Victoria United (who later became Ross County) and Muir of Ord Rovers.

Highland League 'A' sides continued to dominate the competition until the 1960s when the league's presence grew across the Highlands and membership from clubs outside of the central Highlands increased.

During the 1993–94 season, with an unprecedented 16 teams holding membership and some clubs facing a campaign of over 40 games, the North Caledonian FA elected to play the Football Times Cup as a seven-a-side competition.

Although the format was popular with teams, it immediately returned to an 11-a-side competition the following season.

In 2019-20, the trophy was played for across a group format, split between the North and South of its competing members, along with guest club Lewis & Harris. After all group games were played, the winners of each group played in the final.
