The North Gloucestershire Combination Senior Cup is an annual rugby union knock-out club competition organised by the North Gloucestershire Combination – one of the five bodies that make up the Gloucestershire Rugby Football Union. It was first introduced during the 1903–04 season, with the inaugural winners being and is the most important rugby union competition in north Gloucestershire, ahead of the Junior Cup and Glanville Cup.[1][2]

The Senior Cup is currently open for clubs sides based in Gloucester and north Gloucestershire, playing all the way from tier 5 (National League 3 South West) to tier 11 (Gloucester 3) of the English rugby union league system. The format is a knockout cup with a first round, quarter-finals, semi-finals and a final to be held at Kingsholm in Gloucester in April–May alongside the Junior and Glanville Cup finals.[3]
