At the first AGM of the Dumbartonshire FA in May 1884, it was agreed to introduce an annual competition for a cup. To

prevent clubs from drafting in players, it was decided to adopt the Scottish FA’s rule of players having to be registered by 1 August.

As the county was home to three of the strongest clubs in the world at the time, Dumbarton, Renton and Vale of Leven, the

Dumbartonshire Cup was viewed in the 1880s second only to the Scottish Cup in importance.
