Banbury Trophy Presentation on Monday, April 18th

Banbury United will be presented with the Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central cup and winners` medals on Monday, April 18th when they host Alvechurch at the Plant Hire Community Stadium.

Andy Whing’s side were assured of the title last weekend when, despite being held to a 1-1 home draw by Tamworth, Coalville Town’s 0-0 draw against Hednesford Town on the same day meant the Puritans couldn’t be overhauled.

This is Banbury’s first title success in the Southern League since entering the competition back in 1966.

The previous best was finishing as runners-up in the Division One South & West in 2015/16 to Cinderford Town and winning the play-offs by beating Winchester City 1-0.

The presentations are to be conducted by the Southern League Chairman Terry Barratt and President Keith Allen.

The shield (pictured) will be won by the winners of the match on Saturday 30th April between the champions of the two Premier Divisions, to be hosted at the ground of the Club with the best playing record for the season.
