Norwich Sunday League

The league is affiliated to the Norfolk County Football Association and is not officially part of the English football league system. However, it is recognised by the FA and its cups are eligible for FA Vase qualification.

History

The Norwich Sunday League was founded in 1924 by a group of local football enthusiasts. The inaugural season had just 10 teams competing, but the league has since grown to become one of the largest amateur leagues in the country.

The league has seen some famous names play in its history, including former England internationals Chris Sutton and David Beckham. In recent years, the league has also been home to a number of young players who have gone on to play professional football, such as James Maddison and Todd Cantwell.

Current season

The 2023/24 season is currently underway. The Premier Division is the top tier of the league and is currently being led by Young Boys. Other teams in contention for the title include Acle Rangers, Hethersett Athletic and Long Stratton.

The league also has a number of cup competitions, including the League Cup, the Challenge Cup and the President's Cup. The League Cup is the most prestigious cup competition in the league and is currently being held by Young Boys.
