Participants. The following 29 senior teams from the Jutland FA's then three tier league system, 1925–26  JBUs Mesterskabsrække (3 clubs), the 1925–26 JBUs A-række (23 clubs) and the 1925–26 JBUs B-række (3 clubs), signed up for the cup tournament. From the JBUs Mesterskabsrække, Aarhus GF and Vejle BK did not take part in this season – Aarhus GF redrew their original registration due to the new format of the regional top-flight league, while Vejle BK was of the opinion that the costs were too large in relation to the significance and interest of the cup matches. Horsens FS participated with their reserve team, that had been promoted to the 1926–27 JBUs Mesterskabsrække, and not  the first senior team. Matches. First Round Proper.
