In the former tournament, now sponsored by Strathclyde Demolition, Greenock Juniors were handed a bye in round one – but the Ravenscraig men could hardly have wished for a tougher test in round two, with Gary Fleming’s squad set to make the short trip down the coast to Barrfields to face a Largs Thistle side who reached last season’s final before losing out to Auchinleck Talbot at Broadwood.

Port Glasgow Juniors will also be on the road in their opening tie, travelling to Moor Park to face Lanark United, with a second round tie at home to either Kello Rovers or Vale of Clyde awaiting the winners.
