The '''1985 Chatham Cup''' was the 58th annual nationwide knockout [[association football|football]] competition in [[New Zealand]].

Early stages of the competition were run in three regions (northern, central, and southern), with the [[New Zealand National Soccer League|National League]] teams receiving a bye into the Fourth Round (last 32) of the competition. In all, 141 teams took part in the competition. Note: Different sources give different numberings for the rounds of the competition: some start round one with the beginning of the regional qualifications; others start numbering from the first national knock-out stage. The former numbering scheme is used in this article.

==The 1985 final==
In the final [[Napier City Rovers]] beat [[North Shore United]]. Underdogs Napier had recently finished bottom of the [[1985 New Zealand National Soccer League]] and faced a team containing international players [[Allan Boath]] and [[Keith Hobbs (footballer)|Keith Hobbs]]. Shore's keeper [[Allan Gilgrist]] was also soon to make his international debut. Expectation was that City Rovers would be heavily outclassed.

Napier defied the odds by dominating the match, going into the lead after just two minutes via a Harry Clarke goal. [[Paul Halford]] added a second before half time. Shore scored early in the second half through Barry Weymouth, but [[Greg Brown (footballer born 1962)|Greg Brown]] sealed the match for Napier in the dying minutes of the match. Napier were relegated the following week after losing to [[Manawatu United]] in the Promotion-Relegation play-offs in Palmerston North a week later. Thus Napier became the second team (after [[Western Suburbs FC (New Zealand)|Western Suburbs FC]] in 1971) to be relegated and win the Chatham Cup in the same season.<ref>{{HiltonNZAssoc}} pp. 79-80</ref>

===Jack Batty Memorial Cup===
The Jack Batty Memorial Cup, presented to the player of the final, was presented for the first time in 1985. The trophy honours Jack Batty, who was both a member of the crew of [[HMS Chatham (1911)|HMS ''Chatham'']] and also a three-time medallist in the early days of the tournament with [[Harbour Board (soccer)|Harbour Board]], [[Tramways (soccer)|Tramways]], and [[Tramurewa]]. The cup was donated by his son, John Batty, who was himself a medallist with [[Blockhouse Bay (soccer)|Blockhouse Bay]] in 1970.

The winner of the Jack Batty Memorial Cup for 1985 was [[Greg Brown (footballer born 1962)|Greg Brown]] of Napier City Rovers.
