The Elite Cup: The big tournaments, with the best of all the teams playing, played in Winter and Summer (typically February for Winter and July-August for Summer).īoth tournaments follow the same format: a group stage followed by a knockout stage.The Babby Cup: The lower tournaments, where the good teams get into the Elites, played in Spring and Autumn (typically April-May for Spring and October-November for Autumn).The league is primarily structured around two major tournaments, each of which are played twice a year: Including making custom player models, kits, balls, and even entire stadiums. While initially restricted to names and some texture replacements, more recent tournaments have seen boards go to great lengths to give their teams their own identity. Each team represents a particular image board on 4chan, and so its roster is typically made up of players who represent various memes or in-jokes pertaining to that board's culture and/or fandom.

The 4chan Cup is a virtual football (aka "divegrass") league played by the boards of 4chan.
