Waratah Cup Final 2026 | Sydney United 58 FC v APIA Leichhardt FC

Valentine Sports Park is set to host the 2026 Waratah Cup Final on Wednesday, July 1st with eight time Champions Sydney United 58 FC taking on six time Champions APIA Leichhardt FC in a rematch of the 2023 Waratah Cup Final.

The historic Waratah Cup is known for being one of the most prestigious Football NSW knockout competitions.

The Waratah Cup competition itself has gone through a number of name changes with the Federation Cup commencing in 1957 before it was renamed the Ascot (Craven) Cup in 1959 but then went back to its original name in 1962.

The Federation Cup name was then changed to the Waratah Cup in 1991 where Blacktown City took out the honour of lifting the coveted trophy defeating Avala 2-1.
