HEYWOOD’S current and former footballers have claimed bragging rights in the revival of the Portland Heywood Challenge Cup, which saw the clubs go head-to-head on the golf course on Sunday.
The Challenge Cup, which originated between the two football clubs when they played in the Western Border Football League, was abandoned in 2012 – Heywood having transferred to the South West District Football League at the time – before the clubs decided to use it as a way to reconnect past and current members.
