Lancashire Cup (rugby union) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lancashire Cup (rugby union)
The Lancashire Cup is an English Rugby Football Union competition founded in 1971. It is organized by the Lancashire Rugby Football Union and is open to all eligible clubs in the Lancashire region including a number of clubs in Cheshire and Merseyside. ==History==
Despite the Lancashire RFU being established in 1881 and having the most successful county team in the country, club rugby union took a long time to catch on in Lancashire. While bitter rivals Yorkshire had an established county club competition (the Yorkshire Cup) which had been running since 1878, Lancashire did not have a similar competition until 1971. This lack of competitive rugby meant that Lancashire had a smaller membership of clubs when compared to its counterpart. Some of the current clubs competing seem to be based outside of Lancashire, such as Liverpool St Helens and Waterloo, but when the Lancashire RFU was founded, places like Merseyside and Liverpool were part of the county, and these teams have retained their membership.
