The 2010 Scottish Women's Premier League Cup was the 9th edition of the Scottish Women's Premier League Cup which began in 2002. It was contested by all 12 teams of the Scottish Women's Premier League (SWPL), with matches played between February and May 2010.
After the transition of the women's football schedule in Scotland from autumn-spring to summer, the early-season SWPL Cup was completed in the first half of a calendar year instead of the second half as in previous editions; the 2010 final was played only 6 months after the 2009 final. The format remained unchanged.
