Football at the 2013 Island Games – Men's tournament

Football was contested as part of the programme for the 2013 Island Games which was hosted in Bermuda from 14 to 18 July 2013. It was the 13th edition of the men's football tournament at the multi-sport event organised by the International Island Games Association and the first to be held outside of Europe.

Background
Football had been part of the Island Games programme following the debut of a senior men's competition at the 1989 Island Games in the Faroe Islands. Previously, a five-a-side youth football tournament was held at the inaugural games in 1985 held in Douglas, Isle of Man but football was completely absent from the programme at the 1987 Island Games held in Guernsey. The 2013 Island Games would be the first held outside of Europe. Jersey held the record for gold medals having won the men's football tournament three times. The Isle of Wight were the defending champions after defeating Guernsey 4–2 after extra time in the gold medal match as hosts at the 2011 Island Games. However, they were unable to defend their title as they did not send a team to the 2013 edition. ==Format==
