Final
Glasgow City won the cup for the third time in their history (after 2004 and 2006), proving too strong for first-time finalists Rangers who were in their first season competing under the identity of the famous men's club (they took over existing lower-division members Paisley Saints). Glasgow City also won that season's Scottish Women's Premier League championship and SWPL Cup to complete a 'treble'.[6] Rangers won the SWFL First Division to join the top tier for the following season.
Glasgow City | 5–0 | Rangers |
