   The Matlock League was founded in 1898, with the winners of our first competition being Crich Stars. In 1905 the Cavendish Cup was donated by the Right Honourable Victor Cavendish (9th Duke of Devonshire 1868-1938). So, as you see, the league has been in operation for a very long time and we are looking to enhance our reputation by providing a valuable community outlet for football.
