1936–37 Cypriot Cup

Cyprus Cup 1936-37

The third season of the Cyprus Cup took place from January 24, 1937 to February 28, 1937, and was organized by the Cyprus Football Association. Seven teams participated in it, with Apoel emerging as the winner.

In this edition, a total of seven clubs competed for the title. The competition consisted of three knock-out rounds, which were played over a period of time that spanned from July to September 1936, although the actual tournament took place between January and February 1937. The teams participating in the Cypriot First Division all entered the competition.

The final match was held on February 28, 1937 at the GSP Stadium in Nicosia, with Apoel facing off against defending champion Trast AC. APOEL ultimately emerged victorious, claiming the title of Cyprus Cup winner for the third time. The tournament's format involved direct elimination matches played at the home stadium of one of the two teams, with a draw resulting in an additional 15-minute extension period and subsequent repeat game if necessary.

The Cypriot national cup competition, also known as Kypello Kyprou, was another prominent event that took place during this time. The third edition of the tournament saw Apoel claim their first title victory.
