The1984–85Yugoslav Cup was the 37th season of the topfootball knockout competition inSFR Yugoslavia, the Yugoslav Cup (Serbo-Croatian:Kup Jugoslavije), also known as the "Marshal Tito Cup" (Kup Maršala Tita), since its establishment in 1946.
The Yugoslav Cup was a tournament for which clubs from all tiers of the football pyramid were eligible to enter. In addition, amateur teams put together by individualYugoslav People's Army garrisons and various factories and industrial plants were also encouraged to enter, which meant that each cup edition could have several thousands of teams in its preliminary stages. These teams would play through a number of qualifying rounds before reaching the first round proper, in which they would be paired with top-flight teams.
The cup final was played over two legs on 7 and 24 May, traditionally scheduled to coincide withYouth Day celebrated on 25 May, a national holiday in Yugoslavia which also doubled as the official commemoration ofJosip Broz Tito's birthday.
