The All Joseon Football Tournament ({{Korean|hangul=전조선축구대회|hanja=全朝鮮蹴球大會}}) was the first Korean national football competition, held annually by the Joseon Sports Council or Joseon Football Association. The tournament of the Joseon Sports Council, officially recognized as a predecessor of current Korean FA Cup,{{cite web |url=https://www.kfa.or.kr/competition/fa_cup.php |script-title=ko:하나은행 FA CUP - 자세히보기 |language=ko |publisher=KFA |access-date=7 November 2020}} was founded in 1921 and was annually held in Gyeongseong (Keijō) with four divisions according to age. (senior, college, middle-high school, elementary school) The Pyongyang YMCA and Kwanso Sports Council also annually held a tournament with the same name for the same period (1921–1942) in Pyongyang,{{cite news |url=http://www.maniareport.com/view.php?ud=20200618102440447018e70538d2_19 |script-title=ko:[대한민국 스포츠 100년](34)일제강점기의 지방체육⑧조선체육회와 쌍벽을 이룬 관서체육회 |language=ko |publisher=Mania Report |date=18 June 2020 |access-date=20 November 2020 |first=Tae-hwa |last=Jeong}} but the popularly known competition is Gyeongseong's tournament.
From 1927 to 1931, the Korean college clubs participated in the senior division, because the college division was temporarily abolished during the time, and they showed overwhelming performances against senior clubs by winning all of the five editions. Since 1934, it was merged into the All Joseon Sports Festival, and was contested with other sports.{{cite web |url=http://encykorea.aks.ac.kr/Contents/Item/E0049287 |script-title=ko:전국체육대회(全國體育大會) |language=ko |publisher=Encyclopedia of Korean Culture |access-date=20 November 2020}} However, Joseon Sports Council was forcibly disbanded by Japan in 1938, and the Sports Festival was also abolished at the time. The Joseon Football Association became the new host institution to keep the tournament, but it was finally abolished in 1940.
