The Kate Sheppard Cup, currently known as the New Zealand Football Foundation Kate Sheppard Cup for sponsorship purposes,[2] is New Zealand's premier knockout tournament in women's association football.[3] Founded in 1994, it was known as the Women's Knockout Cup, until it was renamed in 2018.[2] What would have been the 2020 edition of the competition, was cancelled because of COVID-19[4] but the competition continued again in 2021.[5]
