The Castilla y León Cup (from the Spanish expression Copa Castilla y León) is a football championship usually played on summer and autumn between the most important teams in the region of Castilla y León. It was created in 1924 as a regional championship parallel to La Liga, and was played between that year and 1931. The Spanish Civil War and the undisputed leadership of La Liga wiped out the tournament, being forgotten. In 1985, the Football Federation of Castile and León revived it as a summer tournament, being played in just that year. It was in 2009 when it returned to be played[1] on an annual basis.

The tournament is not expected to be played in 2014.[2]

Background

In 1928, Real Unión Deportiva and CD Español were merged into Real Valladolid. In Salamanca, UD Española became UD Salamanca, disappearing Stadium Luises. The new name, "UD Salamanca" was formalized during the Second Republic of Spain in 1932, but the team used that name for the Castilla y León Cup.
