Highly-anticipated Essex County Cup draws have been published online as local football teams have discovered who they’ll face in the opening rounds of the 2019/20 competitions.

Male and female clubs, both in adult and youth football, have visited www.essexfa.com/competitions to see who stands in their way of extended cup runs, with the ultimate aim of reaching one of the finals which take place between March and May each year at senior grounds around Essex.

As well as six male open-age competitions embracing Saturday and Sunday football, there are two veterans, five female and six youth cups, with the youngest age group in boys’ football being played in a 9v9 format.

BBC Essex continue their backing of local competitions by supporting the Senior, Saturday Premier and Women’s Cups, broadcasting draws for the Quarter-Finals onwards for the Saturday Premier and Women’s Cups, plus every round of the Senior Cup on DAB digital radio and through their website at www.bbc.co.uk/essex.

The draws for all of Essex’s County Cups can be found at www.essexfa.com/competitions. The online ‘Full-Time’ system is again being used to allow clubs and referees to view up-to-date information, including draws and match official appointments.
