2013–14 Scottish Youth Cup

The 2013–14 Scottish Youth Cup was the 31st season of the Scottish Youth Cup, the national knockout tournament at youth level organised by the Scottish Football Association for its full and associate member clubs. The tournament was for the under-20 age group, to complement current youth development strategies, having formerly been an under-19 competition. Players born after 1 January 1994 were eligible to play.

Format
The sixteen clubs who reached the fourth round of the 2012–13 competition receive a bye to the third round of this season's tournament. The remaining twenty eight clubs enter the first round and are initially divided into three regional groups to reduce travelling.
