The tournament was played over six rounds in March and April 1897, culminating in the final which was won by Batley.[1] Background{{Further|Challenge Cup}}The Northern Union decided to hold a cup competition called the Northern Rugby Football Union Challenge Cup in July 1896.[2] The cup was commissioned from Bradford silversmiths and jewellers, Fattorini and Sons. Fattorini's designed the trophy themselves and it cost the Northern Union £60.[3] DrawThe draw for the competition was made on 3 September 1896 although the matches were not due to be played until March and April 1897 over six consecutive weekends commencing 20 March 1897. All rounds were drawn at the same time with matches in the second and subsequent rounds given an identification letter such that ties for later rounds were expressed as, for example, "Q. Winner of Round C. v. winner of Round N."[4] The team drawn first had the option to play at home or could agree to play at the opponent's ground. The semi-finals and final were to be played at neutral venues.[5] First roundThe first round involved 20 matches and 40 clubs. 12 clubs (Batley, Bradford Church Hill, Brighouse Rangers, Crompton, Heckmondwike, Liversedge, St Helens Recs, Stockport, Swinton Church, Thornton Rangers, Tyldesley and Werneth) were given a bye to the next round. All 20 ties were played on 20 March 1897.

Semi-finalsThe semi-finals were scheduled for Saturday 17 April. However, due to a waterlogged pitch, the tie between St. Helens and Swinton, due to be played at Broughton Rangers ground - Wheater's Field - was postponed until Monday 19 April. The game between Batley and Warrington, played at Fartown, Huddersfield did go ahead on a very soft pitch.[13] {{rugbyleaguebox| date = 17 April 1897 | time = 3:00pm | team1 = Batley | score = 6–0 | report = [https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000273/18970417/026/0006 Report] | team2 = Warrington | points1 = Tries: Spurr (1), Davies (1) | points2 = | stadium = Fartown, Huddersfield | attendance = 5,500 | referee = J H Smith (Widnes) | manofmatch = }} After the game Warrington lodged a protest over the result, claiming that the game should have been postponed due to the state of the pitch and that the game having gone ahead, the referee allowed the game to end six minutes short. Both grounds of protest were dismissed by the Northern Union Committee.[14] The rearranged game between St Helens and Swinton was played on Easter Monday, 19 April, watched by a crowd of 20,000 taking advantage of the bank holiday to attend. {{rugbyleaguebox| date = 19 April 1897 | time = 3:00pm | team1 = St Helens | score = 7–0 | report = [https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000081/18970420/026/0007 Report] | team2 = Swinton | points1 = Tries: Little (1) Drop goals: Jacques (1) | points2 = | stadium = Wheater's Field, Broughton | attendance = 20,000 | referee = E Holmes | manofmatch = }} FinalThe final took place on 24 April 1897 at Headingley, Leeds. The official attendance was 13,492, with gate receipts of £624.17s.7d.[15] Batley wore white shirts and black shorts and socks in place of their normal cerise and fawn colours. St Helens wore blue and white hooped shirts, white shorts and black socks.[16] St Helens won the toss and elected to have Batley kick off. Despite playing into the wind in the first half, Batley took the lead after five minutes when {{rlp|so}} Joe Oakland, kicked a drop goal to give Batley a 4–0 advantage. Batley extended their lead to 7–0 when {{rlp|ce}} John Goodall scored the first try of the game. These were the only scores of the first half. Early in the second half St Helens scored a try when centre David Traynor took the ball on the halfway line and beat four Batley players before touching down. The St Helens fightback did not last long as Batley flanker John T. 'Paudy' Munns scored Batley's second try to make the score 10–3 which remained the score at the final whistle.[17] After the game the cup was presented by Mrs Louisa Waller, the wife of the president of the Northern Union, Henry Hirst Waller. Mrs Waller presented the Batley players with commemorative gold medals and the St Helens players with silver medals.[17] {{rugbyleaguebox| date = 24 April 1897 | time = 3:30pm | team1 = Batley | score = 10–3 | report = [https://www.newspapers.com/image/257818982 Manchester Guardian report] | team2 = St Helens | points1 = Try: Goodall, Munns Drop goal: Oakland | points2 = Try: Traynor | stadium = Headingley, Leeds | attendance = 13,492 | referee = J.
