A-league Rivalry Cups
A-league Rivalry Cups
In the A-league several teams annually compete for secondary rivalry cups that are usually contested by only two teams. Each cup or trophy is awarded to the eligible team with the better regular season record. Most cups are deliberately conceived as local derbies between teams in the same region.
