history
The predecessor of the cup competition for club teams in Sierra Leone was an annual game between a selection of the colony of Sierra Leone and the protectorate of Sierra Leone since 1936 . From 1939 to 1954 the Sir Douglas Jardine Cup was played. The competition was replaced in 1995 by the Regional Cup , which was a competition of provincial selections.
In the Western Area , the former crown colony , cup competitions were organized first from 1925 to 1967 under the umbrella of the SLFA and then by the Western Area Football Association (WAFA) until 1969. From 1949 to 1976 this was the Association Cup , from 1949 to 1954 also the Beresford-Stooke Cup (named after the former Governor George Beresford-Stooke ), from 1945 to 1995 the Stevenson's Cup , which was named Chellaram Cup from 1956 to 1969 .
