2015–16 Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup |
Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup is an annual football competition held in the entity of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina to determine ten participants of Bosnia and Herzegovina Football Cup. Competition has no winner.
Competition format
Old format
Each canton FA organizes its own cup, held in Fall through early summer next year and each canton has two berths in Federation Cup. That makes 20 teams. Then, 20 teams are drawn to make 10 matchups of the final, which are played over one leg in late August or early September. Winners (10) qualify to national cup. Big problem is lack of interest at both clubs and cantonal FAs so Federation Cup never had 20 teams - if there are no 20 teams, some teams, depending on draw, get bye to national cup. Competition has no winner although it only stage is called final.
New format
From 2014-15 season, competition will still have 20 teams, but 16 spots are awarded to teams from First League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina while remaining 4 spots will be filled with teams from cantonal cups.
