There is keen interest taken in Association football at Gibraltar, the Governor's Cup, open to all the troops in the Garrison, proving an incentive to the contending teams. This season it has been awarded to the 2nd Battalion of the East Lancashire Regiment. The teams which entered for the cup were the Royal Artillery, Royal Engineers (2), the Medical Staff Corps, 2nd Battalion East Lancashire Regiment (2), 1st Battalion Middlesex Regiment, and 2nd Battalion King's Royal Rifle Corps. The last-named was the winning team last season, but was defeated this time by the second team of the 2nd Battalion of the East Lancashire Regiment'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
