Currently Carlisle United are the only professional team from the football league in the competition since Workington left the football league in 1977, so as a result they now tend to enter their reserve team. Other teams that enter are Workington, Cleator Moor Celtic, Penrith, Carlisle City, Whitehaven, and Windscale are from different levels of non-league. Northern Premier League , North West Counties Football League, Northern Football League , West Lancashire Football League and Wearside Football League are represented by these teams.
Teams from the Cumberland County League and the Westmorland League can also take part as they are covered by the Cumberland Football Association.
In previous years Scottish teams such as Annan Athletic, Gretna and Hearts of Liddesdale have also entered the competition due to being in the Carlisle and District League at the time. In Annan and Gretna's case they have even won the competition several times.
The current holders are Workington who defeated Carlisle 1-0 in the 2023-2024 final at Borough Park, Workington.
The last win for a club is shown in bold.
The competition was not held between 1915 and 1918 due to World War I. The competition was cancelled in 2019-20 and 2020-21 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. |
