Four teams sign up to GFSN Cup
Four further LGBT-friendly clubs have signed up to compete in the GFSN Cup for 2008/09.
Last year’s winners, Village Manchester have entered - along with Stonewall III’s, Cardiff Dragons, and Newcastle Panthers FC.
The competition this year will have 14 teams, meaning two teams will receive a ‘bye’ for the first round.
This year sees the introduction of “flexible dates”. When the draw for each round is completed, teams themselves must mutually agree a date to contest the fixture. This initiative has been introduced to help avoid conflicts with other fixtures and events they may have planned.
