The Bevirs Law Cup

Posted by Keith Yeomans

The Bevirs Law Cup returned to Swindon on Saturday after Marine won 2-1 in Banbury in the Preseason Cup match that began in the summer of 2018 at the Webbswood Stadium.

In the summer of July 2018 Banbury United won the Cup for the first time after finishing top of a group of four teams that also included Hungerford Town and Bradford Town. This preseason it was decided to have a one off match for the trophy between Banbury and Marine in Oxfordshire.
