The 1975 Pacific Cup was initiated by the New South Wales Rugby League. The tournament involved two Australian state sides as well as Papua New Guinea, who did not yet have Test match status, and the New Zealand Māori.
The Northern Territory were invited to participate, but had to drop out after Darwin was devastated by Cyclone Tracy.
