The SMFA Cup is split into two stages:

First, a group stage involving a set amount of clubs dependent on the type of Игровой мир. Each club which qualifies for the opening group phase of the SMFA Cup will be seeded accordingly, and this will mean equally matched clubs will avoid each other until the latter stages.

The clubs are drawn into numerous groups with four clubs per group. Dependent on the type of Игровой мир each club will play every other club in the group at least once.

Second, the knockout stage involving the qualified clubs from the group stage. The first round of the knockout stage sees the group winners playing the group runners-up (however you cannot play a runner-up from the same group), over two legs, home and away.

If the aggregate score is level then away goals will count double. If the aggregate scores are still level then penalties are used to decide who will progress to the next stage of the tournament.

The SMFA Cup final is a one off match played at a neutral pre-determined venue. If the match is a draw after 90 minutes have been played, then penalties are used to decide who will lift the trophy.
