The United Football League FA League Cup, commonly known as UFL FA League Cup, was a Filipino association football competition. It was played on a multistage format that culminates in a knockout stage (single elimination). Clubs that were eligible to compete for the cup were those who then played in the United Football League's two divisions.[1] The only edition of this tournament was part of the 2014–15 United Football League season, preceding the league proper and the ULF Cup, the pre-existing and separate cup tournament.[1][2]
