Introduction

The Old Boys League is an amateur football league in England. It was founded in 1922 and currently has 36 teams competing in four divisions. The league is affiliated to the Football Association (FA) and its teams compete in the FA Vase and the FA Sunday Cup.

History

The Old Boys League was founded in 1922 by a group of former Liverpool footballers who wanted to continue playing the game after they had retired. The league's first season had just six teams, but it has grown steadily over the years and now has over 300 players. The Old Boys League has produced a number of talented footballers over the years, including former Liverpool players such as Jimmy Case, Ronnie Whelan, and Ian Rush. The league also has a strong tradition of producing referees, with several Old Boys League referees going on to officiate in the Football League and the FA Cup.
