The Dubonnet Cup was an invitational English football exhibition cup game held between 1910 and 1912 held in Paris. The game was an annual event the aim of which was to generate interest in the French amateur football leagues and helped lead to the establishment of the French Football Federation. ==Trophy== The cup is a large vase trophy which weighs in at approximately 112lbs or 50kg. :"It is of massive design, weighing nearly a cwt., and its style is distinctly French. It is not, perhaps, so attractive and polished a trophy as one might have expected, and when the players themselves first saw it displayed on the Paris ground, and guarded by a Gendarme with drawn sword! they did not (in the words of the popular Secretary) think much of it. But a close inspection is sufficient to show that it is a beautiful work of art. It is a facsimile of an historic cup which is now in the British Museum."〔 In the years that followed, the trophy resided at the Swindon Town clubhouse, until it was lost in 1992. By 1997, it was back in the Town fold. 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「Dubonnet Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
