The official launch of the Carling Knockout Cup took place on October 10, 2023.
The Carling Knockout Cup is a professional football knockout competition in South Africa featuring 16 teams from the South African Premier Division.
Founded in 1982, the tournament was initially called the Datsun Challenge. It was renamed the JPS Knockout Cup in 1984 under the new NSL regime and retained that name until 1992 when it became the Coca-Cola Cup. Coca-Cola sponsored the event until 1996 when it was replaced by the Rothmans Cup. The tournament returned to the Coca-Cola name in 2001 due to new regulations on tobacco sponsorship in sports. Telkom took over as sponsor in 2006 and remained until 2020. The 2020/21 edition was cancelled due to the loss of the main sponsor, and in August 2021, it was announced that the tournament would be discontinued because of fixture congestion. However, the competition resumed in the 2023/24 season with a new sponsorship from Carling Black Label, leading to its rebranding as the Carling Knockout Cup.
The Carling Knockout Cup is the second league cup of the PSL and the third cup in the DStv Premiership, following the MTN 8 and the Nedbank Cup.
