2018-19 NPL Championship – Who Drinks from the Seer Cup?
NPL Playoffs – SEER CUP!
The Seer Cup, a 138 year old tradition that started on the coast of Norway in a small fishing village, was originally an elaborate dodge-ball game with teams of fifty squaring off in the public square. The game evolved into modern day football, but the trophy – a large silver goblet filled with fish and gravy – remains to this day, sans the fish and gravy. 137 times the Seer Cup has switched hands, and 137 hearts have been broken attempting to grasp that elusive trophy.
As tradition dictates, the 138th Seer Cup is once again played in the small, coastal city rich in Norwegian heritage: Stubbtown, WA.
