The 2011 Mirabella Cup was the first edition of a football (soccer) knockout-cup competition held between men's clubs in Victoria, Australia. It was to be unique in Australian football in that the competition was to integrate clubs from the national top level league, the A-League, with the state system below. However, the Football Federation Australia later withdrew their permission for Melbourne Victory and Melbourne Heart to take part in the competition while the first rounds were already ongoing, citing confusion of fans in marketing an as yet unannounced national knockout cup competition, which the FFA described in a press announcement announcing their reversal as still being in a stage of consideration, and not yet having a viable plan.[1]

Northcote City SC defeated Melbourne Knights in the final to win their first Victorian top-level silverware.

The Regional Challenge Cup was won by Cobram Victory.

Quarter Final Series

After the removal of Melbourne Heart and Melbourne Victory, who were set to debut in the Quarter-Finals, the structure of the tournament was revised. Instead of a straight knockout - as was previously planned - the six teams will be placed into two round-robin tournament groups of three, with the top two teams from each group to advance to the Semi-Finals. The draw for this stage, as well as the announcement of the format, was held on July 22.[2]
