Concurso España

The Concurso España was a knockout football competition in Spanish football, organized by the Federación Española de Clubs de Foot-ball (FECF), a forerunner of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF). It was created as a competition where foreign players were allowed to play, after they had been banned from the Copa del Rey due to disputes that arose between the clubs during the 1911 tournament. Only a single edition was completed in 1912, which was won by Deportivo La Coruña. It was officially recognised by the board of directors of the RFEF on 25 March 2023.
