Good afternoon and welcome to Broadwood Stadium,
Cumbernauld for today’s Season 2023–24 Clydebuilt
Home Improvements Scottish Junior Cup Final between
Arthurlie FC and Darvel FC.
It is a great honour for myself, on behalf
of the Association to welcome the Players,
Management and Committees of both
great Clubs, but more importantly to you,
the supporters from Barrhead and Darvel

exciting conclusion to the Season for all.
I would like to thank our sponsor of this
years’ tournament, Clydebuilt Home
Improvements and to Only Sport who

The tournament continues to be enhanced
by BBC Alba who will again provide the

the host venue for today’s Final as we also
enter the second year of our venue
partnership and to the many others who
have contributed to the tournament.
On a personal note, I would like to express
my appreciation to Alex McDowall our
Chief Operating Officer, our Assistant
Secretary Kennie Young and John Fyfe,
Treasurer, our administration staff and the
Management Committee of the Scottish
Junior Football Association in getting us to
this stage of the Competition successfully.
to bring the National Trophy to the Irvine
Valley for the first time, the best of luck
this afternoon and hope for a thrilling and
sporting match from both sides.
As the competition enters its 138 th Year
being the 5th Oldest National Trophy in
the World, the competition continues to
retain its historic significance for the
communities in Scotland with a
contemporary financial benefit for the
Clubs participating.
“Enjoy the game!”
