Rock Cup

The Rock Cup is Gibraltar's premier cup football competition, and is organized annually by the Gibraltar Football Association (GFA).

From 1894/95 Gibraltar's Cup Competition was known as "The Senior Merchant's Cup". In 1935 a new trophy was presented, to the Gibraltar Football Association by the Merchants, Traders and Hotels of Gibraltar and thus the Rock Cup, as it is known today, was born.

The winner of the 2014 Rock Cup was to be the first one to participate in the Europa League, but as Lincoln Red Imps had already been titled league champion, thus qualifying for 2014–15 UEFA Champions League, the losing finalist College Europa qualified for the first qualifying round.

Due to a sponsorship with Gibtelecom, the cup was known as the Gibtelecom Rock Cup from 2018 to 2021.

Format
The Rock Cup is open to all Gibraltar Football Association club members and is played on a straight knock-out basis.

In 2014, then UEFA president Michel Platini presented the trophy to the winners.
