Number of entries confirmed

126 teams have been accepted in to this season’s FA Sunday Cup. Whilst this still remains a comparatively high figure (the average number of entrants through most of the competition’s history has been approx 100 a season), it is actually the lowest number since 115 were accepted in 2004/05.

2004/05 was the last season not to feature a preliminary round and the FA have notified all club Secretaries to confirm that under the current structure of the competition and due to the number of teams accepted, there will be no preliminary round this season.

The draw for the first round will be published on the FA’s website on Friday 26th August. The first round games will take place on 16th October.
