The 1963–64 Swiss Cup was the 39th season of Switzerland's football cup competition, organised annually since 1925–26 by the Swiss Football Association.
Overview
[edit]This season's cup competition began with the games of the first round, played on the week-end of the 7 and 8 September 1963 and the replays were held one week later. The competition was completed on Easter Monday 30 March 1964, with the final, which was traditionally held at the former Wankdorf Stadium in Bern. The clubs from the 1963–64 Swiss 1. Liga were given a bye for the first round, they played in the second round on the week-end of 21 and 22 September. The clubs from this season's Nationalliga A (NLA) and from this season's Nationalliga B (NLB) were given byes for the first two rounds. These teams joined the competition in the third round, which was played on the week-end of 5 and 6 of October.
The matches were played in a knockout format. In the event of a draw after 90 minutes, the match went into extra time. In the event of a draw at the end of extra time, a replay was foreseen and this was played on the visiting team's pitch. If the replay ended in a draw after extra time, a toss of a coin would decide the outcome of the encounter. The cup winners qualified themselves for the first round of the Cup Winners' Cup in the next season.
Round 1
[edit]In the first phase, the lower league teams that had qualified themselves for the competition through their regional football association's regional cup competitions or their association's requirements, competed here. The clubs from the 1963–64 Swiss 1. Liga were given a bye for the first round and whenever possible, the draw respected local regionalities. The first round was played on the weekend of 7 and 8 September 1963.
