The Gregoryisgodistan National Cup is held following the league season to determine a spot in the Globe Cup. All 8 GSL teams participate, as do 32 local teams representing the 32 non-slave districts (the Capital District does not get a team.) This means every District from 1-36 except 5, 9, 23 and 27 sent a team. The 32 local teams will play two opening rounds by random draw first, then the 8 remaining teams and 8 GSL teams join, still random draw. All games are played at the home of one random selected team, and will include extra time and penalties if necessary.

Final:
Coastal Soccer Club 0–1 FC 17 June
Accordingly, FC 17 June is the champion of GSC 1 and Coastal Soccer Club is the runner-up. As FC 17 June has already advanced to the Champions Cup and Coastal Soccer Club to the Globe Cup, Prune Farmers FC will receive the spot reserved for the Cup Winner by virtue of finishing fourth in the GSL.
Normally, the Cup Winner would go to the CEdC along with the League winner, but FC 17 June won both. That place is therefore allocated to the winner of a playoff between the league runner-up and the cup runner-up (if they were the same team, it would advance automatically.) Therefore, November 5 SC and Coastal Soccer Club played a one-game playoff. By rule (unlike in the Cup) there was no extra time/penalties, and a replay would be played if necessary at the team randomly selected not to host the first game, repeating as necessary, switching host sites each time. Coastal was randomly selected to host the playoff.
Results:
Coastal Soccer Club 0–1 November 5 SC
November 5 SC takes the second CEdC spot.
Final Qualifiers:
Gregoryisgodistan (GGS) Qualifiers
UICA
Champions Cup: FC 17 June
Globe Cup: November 5 SC, Coastal Soccer Club, Prune Farmers FC
CeDC: November 5 SC, FC 17 June
Cygnus Cup: FC 17 June
Additionally, the Gregoryisgodistan FA announced a change for next cycle. Beginning next cycle, the third Globe Cup spot will automatically go to the fourth place team in the GSL, while the Cup Winner, regardless of whether it is participating in UICA events, will earn a spot in the Cygnus Cup. This was a moot point this year, as FC 17 June won the league and the cup.
