A total of 162 teams entered the preliminary rounds which were open to all members of the Scottish FA.

After the completion of the four preliminary rounds which saw 914 goals scored across 143 matches, Aberdeen, Airdrieonians, Albion Rovers, Annbank, Broxburn Shamrock, Camelon, Campsie, Cowlairs, Dunblane, King's Park, Monkcastle, Motherwell, Queen of the South Wanderers, Royal Albert, Stenhousemuir and 5th Kirkcudbright RV advanced to the first round.

Format

Alongside the four semi-finalists from the previous season, 12 further teams were voted to be exempt from competing in the preliminary rounds. The names of the remaining clubs were placed into lots according to their districts and drawn into pairs. The home team would be the first team drawn unless only one of the clubs in a pair had a private ground. In the event of a draw, the second team drawn would have the choice of ground for the replay. This process was repeated for the second and third preliminary rounds. All competing clubs were placed into a single lot for the fourth preliminary round.^[1]
