Hurley Shield page updated : 14 Oct 2007
Introduction
The Hurley Shield was formerly the Canterbury FA's 1st Division Championship. Some years after the Southern League was formed the Hurley Shield became a pre-season tournament. The Hurley Shield was reinstated as the trophy for the Canterbury Premier League winners in 1999 and 2000. In 2007, the Shield became a challenge trophy -a similar format to rugby's Ranfurly Shield.
This page (still under
construction, complete from 1957 onwards) deals with Rangers first team in the CFA Divisions prior to the Southern League. Rangers were Hurley Shield Champions in 1916, 1922, 1931
(shared in 1931).
Note: all results have Rangers' score first.
