Over the years, the Stroud Charity Cups have been played on Sundays, but having now gone under the umbrella of the Stroud & District League, rather than being run independently, most of the matches are now scheduled for Saturdays. With a number of clubs still entered who play at a higher level, then it still throws up the odd Sunday match, with this being such a case.

Tredworth Tigers are in fourth place in the top division of the Stroud & District League, with Leonard Stanley playing two levels higher, in the Gloucestershire Northern Senior League Division 1, albeit bottom of the league table, having won just two matches in the process.

Tredworth, led by former Gloucester City striker Lee Smith, had the game wrapped up after half an hour, easing into a 3-0 lead, although Stanley did hit both crossbar and post, but were unable to convert anything. Two early second half strikes made it 5-0, before the visitors scored the final goal of the match just before the hour mark.
