The 1911–12 American Cup was the twenty–first edition of the challenge cup held by the American Football Association. The new officers for this season were elected at a meeting at the Continental Hotel in Newark on May 27, 1911. John Watt the former president was now Honorary President, John Lone was President, A.M. Brown of Philadelphia was Vice–President, Harry Craig of Paterson was Treasurer, Andrew N. Beveridge was Secretary, and Duncan Carswell was recording secretary. This was a pivotal year for the AFA which was aligned with the English FA. The touring Corinthians team was part of the Amateur Football Association and not a member of the English FA. The AFA was instructed by the English FA to bar teams from playing in any matches with the 'outlaw' Corinthians at the risk of expulsion. As a result Newark was suspended for a year for playing a match with the Corinthians on September 18, 1911 at Morris Park, Newark. The New York State League expelled Bronx United because they pulled a player from the New York State League select team's match against the Corinthians played on September 16, 1911 at the Polo Grounds. Newark, having withdrawn from the National Association Football League, was replaced with Bronx United. The New York State League in a retaliatory moved started their own tournament and renamed themselves the American Amateur Football Association The AFA now had a rival organization and tournament to compete with. Newark, now a member of the New York Amateur League in place of Bronx United, went on to win that championship and finished runner–up in the AAFA Cup. Newark's home field, Morris Park, was selected as the site of the AFA cup final, an all New Jersey match between the Rangers and West Hudson.
