1963 Norwegian Football Cup

The 1963 Norwegian Football Cup was the first all-Norwegian cup, as it was the first year clubs from Northern Norway were allowed to participate in the cup. Of the two northern Norwegian teams that participated this year, Bodø/Glimt made it all the way to the fourth round.

The surprise team of the cup this year was Sagene, a team that made it to the quarter final, despite playing in the third division (tier three).

Skeid won the cup, beating Skeid 2-1 in the final.
