2027 Bathurst Cup

About this event

The Bathurst Cup is a pre-season tournament at Proctor Park, Bathurst, on Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 January 2027. This is a team event, not an individual one — clubs and representative teams enter, so if your child plays in a squad it is their coach or club that nominates, not you. Age groups are Under 13, Under 14, Under 15, Under 16 and Under 18 boys, plus Under 21 men. Football NSW says Boys Youth League teams, association representative teams and association club teams may all take part. Entry is $550 a team through Bathurst Football's online shop, and nominations close on Monday 30 November 2026 — earlier if the tournament fills. Once a team nominates, the fee has to be paid within three days to confirm the spot. For most Sydney and Illawarra clubs this is an away trip: Bathurst is about three hours west of Sydney, so teams typically stay overnight between the two days.
