Super Cup of Bosnia and Herzegovina
Encyclopedia
Super cup of Bosnia-Hezegovina is a football competition, originally planned to be held every year. This competition exists in many countries and it is a match played between the league champion and cup winner of the previous season. Sometimes, only one match is played, and sometimes two, depending on clubs' agreement. It is not played at all in recent years since clubs are not so interested.
In following years, clubs could not find an appropriate date to play a Super cup, although Football Association
is trying to make it more popular by suggesting it should be played before the season, as a curtain raiser.
Winners
Officially, only three Super cup titles have been awarded. Until 2000, three different championships and cups were organized on ethnical principles, and every region had its own champion and cup winner. Some of them had their own Super cup, but it was not officially recognized. In 1998, for the first time, championship play-off was organized, as well as "super final" between two different cup winners. That same year, first Super cup was played on November 25. Symbolically, since it is a national holiday in Bosnia-Herzegovina.Year | Winner | Runner-up | Result | Notes |
