The 1980 NSL Cup was the fourth edition of the NSL Cup, which was the main national association football knockout cup competition in Australia.

Adelaide City were the defending champions, having defeated St George-Budapest to win their first title in the previous year's final, but they were eliminated in the semi-finals by finalist Heidelberg United.[1]

Marconi Fairfield defeated Heidelberg United 3–0 via a replay after a 0–0 draw in the final to win their first NSL Cup title.
