The 2009 Milk Cup Tournament edition was a prestigious association football tournament divided into three categories: Elite, Premier, and Junior for differing age groups. It ran between 27 and 31 July.

The Elite section had six teams in 2009, divided into two groups of three followed by a playoff, whilst the Junior and Premier sections were contested by 24 and 20 teams, respectively. Each team played once on Monday and Tuesday as part of a league, from which the top eight teams qualified for the Milk Cup quarter-finals on Wednesday. The remainder of the teams qualify for other cups that run alongside the Milk Cup, with quarter-finals on the Wednesday, semi-finals on Thursday, and the finals on Friday.
