The countdown is on for the 2026 Football NSW State Cup Finals, with the state’s premier grassroots knockout competition set to culminate this Sunday, 12 July, at the Home of Football in NSW, Valentine Sports Park.

Supporters unable to attend can still catch every moment, with all 15 finals to be streamed live on the Football NSW YouTube channel, ensuring fans, families and clubs from across the state can follow the action wherever they are.

Football NSW Media Manager Mark Stavroulakis said the live stream would ensure the occasion could be shared with the wider football community across the state.

“State Cup Finals day is one of the biggest celebrations of grassroots football on our calendar, and we’re pleased to once again bring every match live to supporters through the Football NSW YouTube channel,” Stavroulakis said.

“We know not everyone can make it to Valentine Sports Park, whether it’s family, friends or club members, so the live stream gives everyone the opportunity to follow their teams and be part of what’s always a fantastic day of football.

“With 15 finals featuring clubs from right across New South Wales, it’s a great opportunity to showcase the quality, passion and spirit of community football while giving every team the chance to have their moment on a statewide platform.”

One of the largest Football NSW-run knockout competitions, the State Cup Finals will feature 15 championship matches across the day as 30 teams compete for silverware in their respective age groups after navigating months of highly competitive knockout football.

Manly Warringah Football Association continues to assert itself as a State Cup powerhouse, leading all associations with seven teams reaching finals day. The association also topped the charts in 2025 with 10 finalists, highlighting its continued success in the competition.

At club level, Lindfield FC from Northern Suburbs Football Association boasts the strongest representation, with four teams competing in finals. They are followed by Collaroy Cromer Strikers FC, Kirrawee Kangaroos FC, and Rockdale City Suns FC, each qualifying two teams for Sunday’s showcase.

The breadth of representation underlines the strength of grassroots football across New South Wales, with finalist clubs also representing Bankstown, Blacktown, Eastern Suburbs, Football South Coast, Nepean, Northern Suburbs, Southern Districts and Sutherland associations.

The State Cup Finals also honour two of Football NSW’s most respected contributors through its premier trophies: the Andrew Robertson Cup (Men’s 21s) and the Bill Cullinan Cup (All Age Men), recognising their lasting contributions to football in New South Wales.

Whether you’re cheering from the sidelines at Valentine Sports Park or tuning in from home, Sunday’s State Cup Finals promise a full day of exciting grassroots football featuring the state’s best community clubs competing for championship honours.
