The Essex Senior Cup is a knock-out system football competition that has been running since 1884, and is the most prestigious cup competition in the county of Essex. The competition is run mainly for non-League clubs in the region, although league sides have been known to enter the competition, such as Colchester United, Dagenham & Redbridge, Leyton Orient and Southend United. Ilford have won the competition the most times, with 13 wins (their first victory came in 1888 and their most recent in 1954). The current holders are Billericay Town, who beat Bowers & Pitsea 1–0 in the 2022 final at the Jobserve Community Stadium. Finals The following shows a full list of winners and runners-up in the Essex Senior Cup since the knock-out competition was started in 1883. Key Wins by club Notes The 2005–06 final was not played due to Chelmsford City and Braintree Town being removed from the competition following the abandonment of their semi-final in the second half (63rd minute) due to an all-in-brawl. Waltham Forest beat Heybridge Swifts 3–0 in their semi-final.
