The National Christian Cup and Trophy

Well, this is a very historic moment, as the National Christian Cup celebrates it's 20th season and the National Christian Trophy, it's 5th Year!

After many emails and phone calls, again promoting the National Christian Football Competitions and preparing for the draw, we are very pleased to announce that we have an entry of 94 teams for 2011/2012! When we decided to develop the National Christian Cup into 2 Competitions and start the National Christian Trophy in 2007, we were aiming at around 80 to 90 teams. The 2007 entry of 81 was excellent but in the past 3 seasons we have received around or over 100 entries. This season we have had 94 teams enter.

This season, we have actually seen 11 teams that entered last season, leave the National Christian Football Network altogether, because they realised that they were not really fulfilling the requirements of being a Christian-based Football Club. Coupled to the fact that quite a few teams have not entered this season in order to refresh and rebuild the vision of their Club and others because of financial restraints, then I find this number of teams very encouraging.

For me, there is a sense of pruning, in order that the "Christian Football Tree" will get stronger as well as bigger! Of the 94 Christian-based Teams, there are 39 Teams in the National Cup and 55 teams in the National Trophy. This is fantastic and we give thanks to the Lord! Also a big thank-you for your patience in waiting for the draw.

Aims of the National Christian Cup and Trophy

The aims of the competition are to draw together Christian - based football teams from across the country to play on a national stage, to encourage and bless one another and to enable christians to reach others with the love of Christ through their common passion for football

The competition is an important part of the network of christian footballers and teams, with regular reports and updates appearing in Frontline magazine and on this Web site.
