There has been a change to the format of the County Cups following the County AGM in August. They will no longer be knock-out competitions, but one-off end-of-season matches between clubs nominated by the Wolverhampton League and the NSDCA. They will also be restricted to clubs based within the Staffordshire County Boundaries as defined in Article 2 of the County Constitution. Unfortunately, this means that Alsager, Crewe, Holmes Chapel and Macclesfield will not be eligible to be nominated. The revised County Cup Rules can be found here.
