The Drybrough Cup was a Scottish annual football tournament. It was held from 1971 until 1974, and was revived from 1979 to 1980. It was open to the four highest-scoring teams from Division 1, and the four highest-scoring teams from Division 2. The format allowed the tournament to have three rounds: First Round, Semi-final and a Grand Final. The tournament was held in the week preceding the commencement of the 'regular' season.

Celtic were one of the best performers at the Drybrough Cup, appearing in five of the six Grand Finals, but they only won on one occasion.
