Pupils from primary schools in and around Cumnock will have the chance to be part of a historic day for the town.

A competition has been launched for kids to design a flag to be used at Cumnock Juniors' Scottish Junior Cup final next month.

Cumnock secured their place in the final with a stunning 4-2 win over local rivals Glenafton last month.

They will meet Rutherglen Glencairn in the final at Broadwood Stadium on Friday, June 2.

It will be the club's chance to add to their two previous triumphs - in 1979 and 1989.

To mark the potentially historic occasion, Cumnock Juniors Community Enterprise is running a competition for pupils at Lochnorris, Netherthird and Logan primaries to create a flag for the day.

A flag will picked from each school, with a prize to be handed out to the winner.

Flag entries will be collected from each school on Friday, May 19, with winners selected thereafter.
