Capital Football Federation Cup

The Federation Cup is a soccer competition established in 1962 that is held between clubs who are affiliated with Capital Football in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) and surrounding areas of New South Wales. It is the premier cup competition in the region. Since 2014, the Federation Cup has concurrently served as the ACT competition for the preliminary rounds of the FFA Cup, with the cup winner representing the ACT.[1] Canberra FC currently holds the record for most titles, having lifted the Cup 18 times. Cooma Tigers are the current cup holders, having lifted the Cup in 2019.

Current Cup Competitions 2013-onwards

The current format is a qualifying competition for the FFA Cup, where the winner qualifies for the Round of 32. Scheduling issues meant the 2014 winner would not be decided until after the qualifier needed to be named.[2] To overcome this Capital Football announced that the 2014 winner of the ACTs pre-season competition was to be the ACTs qualifier in 2014. However, Tuggeranong United as the 2013 Federation Cup winners successfully appealed to Capital Football to qualify them as ACTs 2014 FFA Cup entrant.[2] The 2014 winner – Belconnen United – entered into the 2015 FFA Cup preliminary rounds in a later round than the rest of the Capital Football NPL sides.[3]
