The 2017 NBP President's Cup was the first edition of NBP President's Cup. The standalone tournament was sponsored by National Bank of Pakistan in 2017, as there was no footballing activity in Pakistan since 2016 PFF Cup, during the suspension of official PFF competitions due to the crisis within the federation.
