The competition began on 29 July 1983 with the first games of the first round and was completed on Whit Monday 11 June 1984 with the final, which was held at the former Wankdorf Stadium in Bern. The teams from the Nationalliga B were granted byes for the first round. The games of the second round were played on the weekend 6 and 7 of August.
