The Foxtel Cup[1] was an annual Australian rules football club knockout cup competition involving clubs from state league competitions around Australia. The tournament was organised by the Australian Football League (AFL), and was held annually between 2011 and 2014.
The competition initially featured sixteen teams who qualified based on their finishing positions in their previous state league seasons. In 2011 and 2012, matches were played mostly as curtain-raisers to AFL Saturday night games, or occasionally as a stand-alone game in the same timeslot;[2] in 2013 and 2014, matches were mostly played as stand-alone games on Tuesday nights.[3] Matches were televised on subscription television provider and competition naming rights sponsor Foxtel; and clubs played matches on or adjacent to bye weeks in their respective state league fixtures. Total annual prize money for the competition was about $250,000, with $40,000 going to the winner.[4]
Victorian Football League club Williamstown won the Foxtel Cup twice, in 2011 and 2014.[5] West Australian Football League club Claremont won the 2012 competition,[6] and South Australian National Football League club West Adelaide won the 2013 competition.
