The '''Mid-Ulster Cup''' is a senior [football](/source/football_(soccer)) competition in [Northern Ireland](/source/Northern_Ireland) run by the [Mid-Ulster Football Association](/source/Mid-Ulster_F.A.) (founded 2 April 1887).<ref>Belfast News-Letter, 9 April 1887</ref> The competition has historically featured teams based in [County Armagh](/source/County_Armagh), east [County Tyrone](/source/County_Tyrone), and west [County Down](/source/County_Down), though teams from outside the Mid-Ulster FA's jurisdiction have also competed on occasion, with [Bangor](/source/Bangor_F.C.) (affiliated to the [County Antrim & District F.A.](/source/County_Antrim_%26_District_F.A.)) winning the cup in 1995/96.

==History==
First held in 1887–88, the inaugural edition was won by [Milford](/source/Milford_F.C.). For 30 seasons, from 1947–48 to 1977–78, while remaining a senior competition, senior clubs declined to take part, instead fielding their reserve teams. Senior clubs returned, however, for the 1978–79 season, when the [Bob Radcliffe Cup](/source/Bob_Radcliffe_Cup) was introduced as an intermediate competition.<ref>Mid-Ulster Cup 1887-1987 Centenary Souvenir Programme</ref>

The biggest recorded victory in Mid-Ulster cup final history came in the 1892–93 season, when [Donacloney](/source/Donacloney_F.C.) beat [Portadown](/source/Portadown_F.C.) 13–0.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Mid Ulster Football Association |url=https://midulsterfa.co.uk/ |access-date=2025-12-04 |website=midulsterfa.co.uk}}</ref>

The competition is currently sponsored by EuroElectrix, and has been sponsored in the past by Golden Cow Dairies, Dukes Transport, [Tennent's Lager](/source/Tennent's_Lager), [Bass](/source/Bass_Ale), Ted Clarke, [McEwan's Lager](/source/McEwan's_Lager), Silverwood Hotel, Rushmere Shopping Centre and [Belfast Telegraph](/source/Belfast_Telegraph).
