Premier Sports Cup group stage opponents drawn

The draw for the group stage of the Premier Sports Cup was made a little after 1pm this afternoon on Wednesday, May 27.

Kilmarnock Football Club have been drawn in Group H of the tournament, which will get underway on the weekend of July 11/12.

We have been drawn alongside Raith Rovers, Peterhead, Hamilton Accies and Elgin City as we commence the 2026/27 campaign ahead of the Scottish Premiership season in early August.

We will update supporters on the times, dates and ticket information in due course. Progress is being made on pitch renovations at BBSP Stadium Rugby Park.

The format remains unchanged, with 40 clubs participating across five matchdays in the group stage. The five clubs taking part in UEFA competitions next season will join the eight group winners and three best runners-up in the last 16.
