Scottish Cup Final Football

Scotland has the second oldest national Football Association in the world (behind England's FA), and the trophy for the national cup, the Scottish Cup, is the oldest sporting trophy in the world. Scottish football club Rangers have won a world record 54 league titles.

There is a reference to "get hold of the ball before [another player] does" (Praeripe illi pilam is posses agere) suggesting that handling of the ball was allowed.

Members of the SFA include clubs in Scotland, affiliated national associations as well as local associations.

The SFA is responsible for the operation of the Scotland National Football Team, the annual Scottish Cup and several other duties important to the functioning of the game in Scotland.
