The North and South Region Challenge Cups are regional non-league competitions run by the Scottish Football Association. The northern tournament is open to full member non-league clubs in the north of the country with similar stipulations applying to its southern counterpart.

The Challenge Cup competitions replaced the Scottish Qualifying Cup North and South competitions in 2007, after the SFA decided to allow full member clubs at non-league level direct entry to the Scottish Cup proper, and as a consequence the Qualifying Cups were scrapped. To compensate clubs for the demise of the tournaments, two new ones were put in their place.

Spartans were excluded from the 2011-12 edition of the South Region competition, after they were earlier eliminated from the Scottish Cup for failing to complete the correct paperwork of striker Keith McLeod. Both competitions are run by the SFA.
