The missing years may be failure to engrave by the winners or lost plaques. 1980 is recorded as Cancelled and 1976 No competition was held. 1991 the 27^th and in 1993 the 5^th Cambridge are listed elsewhere as the winners.

In 1973 it was reported that the Trophy was in poor shape and a new one purchased. The brass plate was presumably transferred from the old trophy. District Minutes

Chuck Lilley recalls – The Old Trophy ‘gave up the ghost’ and the list of winners placed on the back of a new trophy. The new Trophy was presented to the District by Chuck.
