TheVoyageurs Cup was a competition organized byThe Voyageurs supporters' group to determine the best Canadiansoccer club playing in theUSL W-League between 2004 and 2006.[1] Head-to-head matches between Canadian clubs during the regular season were added to a table, where the top team were awarded the Women's Voyageurs Cup trophies. Because there was no inter-conference play in the regular season, an east and west team were both crowned at the end of each season. In 2006 however, the coincidental meeting between the east and west champion in theplayoff finals allowed the Voyageurs to additionally honour a "Super Cup" champion.[2]
The award was short-lived due to the logistics involved, but it was praised for bringing attention to women's soccer in Canada when there was no dedicated league established (such asProject 8).[3]

Due to the folding of theCalgary Wildfire andEdmonton Aviators, the Voyageurs announced that the western trophy would be contested between the Vancouver Whitecaps and the London Gryphons. Because these teams played in separate divisions, the trophy would be awarded to the team with the best regular season record, as there would be no head-to-head matches between the two teams.[4]
