Cup history
The cup is extremely venerable, having been competed for since the 1886-87 season, when Fairfield Govan became the first winners of the competition. The SJFA purchased an exact replica in 2007, to replace the original which was showing its age.
The record attendance for a Junior Cup Final is 76,314 for the 1951 final between Petershill and Auchinleck Talbot.
From 2006-07 season the Winners of the Junior Cup Final will gain qualification to the First Round of the following season's Scottish Cup for senior football clubs.
Sponsorship
The cup's long-term sponsor, the OVD Demerara Rum company, who, as of 2006, had an eighteen year-long association with the competition, withdrew their backing before the start of the 2006-07 competition. Unlike most other sponsored contests whose names change often, OVD had became so ingrained into the Scottish Junior Cup that it was often simply referred to as the "OVD Junior Cup". The Scottish Junior Football Association announced in 2006 that they would provide the sponsorship and prize money themselves, meaning the cup will be known simply as the Scottish Junior Cup. A new sponsor was found during the 2006-07 competition for the Semi-Finals and Final - Scottish Citylink, a long distance coach operator. Scottish Citylink Coaches Ltd is a long distance express coach operator in Scotland and the Republic of Ireland (where it operates simply as "Citylink"
