SFA Youth Cup 18-19

The SFA Youth Cup is the national competition for Under 20 teams. Traditionally, entrants were SFA member clubs, however this season several non-members are participating – these are drawn from the new senior clubs to have joined the East of Scotland League in the summer.

The number of entrants has reduced significantly in recent seasons – at one stage almost all SFA members entered a team.

Hibernian are the current holders having beaten Aberdeen in last season’s final at Hampden Park.
