The '''Nadkarni Cup''' is a [[Association football|football]] competition in [[Mumbai]], [[India]], which was first held in 1908. From 1908–1913 it was known as Junior [[Rovers Cup]], contested by school and college teams of [[Bombay]], with the trophy originally provided by G. N. Nadkarni. It is hosted by the [[Mumbai Football Association]]. The Cup was not held for some years due to the [[World War I]].

In 1925, the [[Western India Football Association]] allocated Junior Rovers Cup trophy to a completely new tournament.<ref>{{cite journal |url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/14660970500106410?journalCode=fsas20 |title=Regionalism and club domination: Growth of rival centres of footballing excellence |publisher=Taylor & Francis |date=6 August 2006 |access-date=1 March 2023 |archive-date=1 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230301202832/https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/14660970500106410?journalCode=fsas20 |journal=Soccer & Society |volume=6:2–3 |issue=2–3 |pages=227–256 |doi=10.1080/14660970500106410 |url-access=subscription }}</ref> The cup is contested by the [[Maharashtra State Senior Men's Football League]], [[Mumbai Premier League]] and a couple of [[Mumbai Football League#Mumbai Super League|Mumbai Super League]] clubs.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Nadkarni Cup Archives|url=https://www.footballcounter.com/category/mdfa-2/nadkarni-cup/|access-date=2021-11-29|website=Football Counter|language=en-US|archive-date=29 November 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211129033122/https://www.footballcounter.com/category/mdfa-2/nadkarni-cup/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=India – List of Nadkarni Cup Finals|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesi/indianadkarnicuphist.html|access-date=2021-11-29|website=[[RSSSF]]|archive-date=29 November 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211129033202/http://www.rsssf.com/tablesi/indianadkarnicuphist.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Nadkarni Cup Archives|url=https://khelnow.com/football/competition/nadkarni-cup/|access-date=2021-11-29|website=Khel Now|language=en-US|archive-date=18 October 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221018072917/https://khelnow.com/football/competition/nadkarni-cup|url-status=live}}</ref>
