22nd July - 30th July

There should be a feast of football at The UK Building Plastics Direct Arena, Radcot Road, Clanfield over the forthcoming weekend when the First Round matches in the Clanfield 85 annual Jim Newman Memorial Cup get under way on Saturday and Sunday.

All matches in the competition are played at Radcot Road. The Trophy was donated to the Club by the family of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jim Newman stalwarts of the Club who lost their lives in a motor accident and has become a regular and popular feature in pre-season football. Seven of the eight competing Clubs are members of the Uhlsport Hellenic League.

The action gets under way on Saturday 22nd July when Division One West Shrivenham take on Division One East Didcot Town Reserves at 2-00pm followed at 5-00pm by Carterton from Division Two West and AFC Kidlington newly promoted to Division One West.

Then on Sunday newly promoted to Premier Division Abingdon United meet Division One West North Leigh United and at 5-00pm the host club from Division One West will take on former rivals Purton who this season will ply their trade in the Wiltshere County Senior League.

The Semi-finals will be played on Wednesday and Thursday 26 and 27 July (7-30pm) with the Final on Sunday July 30th kick-off 3-00pm.
