The FA Trophy and FA Vase
The Football Association Challenge Trophy was formed in 1970 by the FA to offer non-league football clubs a realistic chance of winning a cup competition. Now in its 43rd season (2011–12), it is becoming more and more popular for non-league fans around the country. There is also the FA Vase for clubs further down the league ladder.

Famous quotes containing the word vase:
“Kitsch is the daily art of our time, as the vase or the hymn was for earlier generations. For the sensibility it has that arbitrariness and importance which works take on when they are no longer noticeable elements of the environment. In America kitsch is Nature. The Rocky Mountains have resembled fake art for a century.”
—Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)
