The King Cup is a long established competition contested by East of Scotland FA member clubs who are also members of the East of Scotland League. Lowland League clubs took part for a time, but this ceased for the 2015-16 competition.
This season, entry is again being restricted to clubs playing the East of Scotland League’s three First Division ‘conferences’.
The format is straight knockout.
