The São Vicente Association Cup (Portuguese: Taça de Associação de São Vicente, Capeverdean Crioulo, ALUPEC or ALUPEK: Tasa di Assosiason di San Visenti), then known as the São Vicente Opening Tournament is an association cup (equivalent to a league cup) played during the season in the island of São Vicente, Cape Verde. The competition is organized by the São Vicente Regional Football Association (Associação Regional de São Vicente de Futebol, ARSVF).[1] Until 2009, it featured 9 rounds and the club met once. When the second division was introduced to the São Vicente Island League in 2009, the Opening Tournament became the Association Cup and featured two divisions. It currently consists of seven rounds, a meeting with another club once. The winner with the most points is the winner.
