The United Provinces Champions Cup, or Coupe di Campeones, is Gladysynthia's semiannual, domestic professional football tournament officially sanctioned by the Gladysynthian Football Administration (GFA). Historically, it has taken several names, including the "National Cup," "Gladysynthian Cup of Champions," and most previously the "Gladysynthian Provincial Champions Cup." It was rebranded as its current title prior to the 2014 edition of the tournament. The province that is crowned champion hosts the following tournament, including the appointment of the host city for the Final.
Format
The Cup has two main stages. The first takes the form of a round-robin tournament, in which teams from each province play each other once a piece, for a total of six matches per team. The second stage takes the form of a single-elimination knock-out tournament. The top four teams by wins from the first stage are seeded one thru four and play two semifinal matches, the 1st-seed versus the 4th-seed and the 2nd-seed versus the 3rd-seed. The winners of these two matches then play each other in the Final, or Championship Match. Upon becoming the Champion, the winning province becomes the host province for the next Champions Cup.
Trophy
The winning province of each Champions Cup is presented the Oskar D. Anthony Trophy, named after the athlete of the same name, who was influential in the establishment of the GFA throughout its fledgling years. The trophy itself is approximately 33 inches tall and 16 inches at its base, and is made of silver, titanium, and copper, with external gold plating.
