1945 Yorkshire Cup 1945 was the thirty-eighth occasion on which the Yorkshire Cup competition had been held. In this, the first peace-time Cup final for five years, there is a new name on the trophy. Bradford Northern who previously won the trophy in 1940, 1941 and 1943, can now lay claim to a genuine trophy (The wartime competitions were not counted officially in the records) Bradford Northern won the trophy by beating Wakefield Trinity by the score of 5-2 The match was played at Thrum Hall, Halifax, now in West Yorkshire. The attendance was 24,252 and receipts were £1,934 == Background == The Second World War was now over, and things were beginning to return to normal, although still a long way to go. Hull Kingston Rovers and Bramley re-joined the competition and the four Lancashire clubs returned to their own competition. This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, and these changes resulted in the number of entrants falling by two, and leaving a total number of entries at fifteen. This in turn resulted in one bye in the first round. The competition reverted to original formula of a knock-out tournament, with the exception of the first round which was still played on a two-legged home and away basis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1945 Yorkshire Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
