The pre-season tournament involves the top 6 clubs in Iceland from the previous season of Úrvaldeild kvenna. It generally takes place between February and May.

Format

The 6 teams are placed in one group. Each team meets each other once during the pool stage. The final positions of the group are determined after these 5 games are played. The top four of the group automatically gain entry to the next stage in the competition.

From the semifinal round it is a purely knockout competition where ties take place over 1-leg only. If a tie is not decided in 90 minutes, penalty kicks are taken to decide the game.
