There was a smaller Sports cup before Provost David Fraser presented this
cup in 1959.
The cup that was in use from 1935-59 is now used for the
intermediate Sports championship.
The trophy has been competed for
every year since 1935 except for the years 1938, 1955, 1956, 1957 and
1963. This was due to inclement weather, and in the years 1940-45 it
was not competed for because of the war.
