The Volunteer State Cup is a friendly cup open to all teams associated with the Tennessee region of the USA.

Format

The first edition of this cup used group format similar to the World Cup, but since then has been reformatted as a single-elimination tournament in which teams play each other in one-off matches, with extra time and penalty shootouts used to decide the winner if necessary. Teams are seeded based on their league rank the week prior to the cup beginning.
