Isle of Man Hospital Cup

The Isle of Man Hospital Cup, also known as the Keystone Law Hospital Cup for sponsorship reasons, is an association football single-elimination tournament held for football clubs in the Isle of Man. [1] It was created in 1921 by Noble's General Hospital, and is overseen by the Isle of Man Football Association. Money is raised for the hospital during matches and a percentage of the final gate receipts to a charity on the Isle of Man. The cup competition includes a group stage and a knock-out stage for all divisions in the Isle of Man Football system. [2]
