The Chinese FA Cup ({{zh|中国足协杯}}, abbreviated as CFA Cup) is the national knockout cup competition in China organized by the Chinese Football Association. The current holders are Shanghai Port, having beaten Shandong Taishan in 2024 for their first title.

History

The competition started as the Chinese National Football Championship ({{zh|全国足球锦标赛}}) in 1956.[http://sports.163.com/16/0204/15/BF07AAP400051C89.html 2016足协杯抽签揭晓 60周年历史辉煌]. sports.163.com. 2016-02-04. Retrieved 2016-05-16. It was reorganized after the Cultural Revolution and used the name Chinese FA Cup for the first time in 1984. It was scrapped for the 6th National Games of China in 1987, and was reorganized again as the Chinese National Cup Winners' Cup ({{zh|全国足球优胜者杯赛}}) between 1990 and 1992 as the qualifiers for the Asian Cup Winners' Cup.

The current format of the FA Cup began in the 1995 season following the establishment of the professional football league in China. The cup was temporary scrapped in 2007 due to the Chinese Football Association's strategy for the 2008 Summer Olympics,[http://sports.sina.com.cn/c/2006-09-30/13302485530.shtml 足协最新决定出炉：为北京奥运让路 足协杯停办两年]. sports.sina.com. 2006-09-30. Retrieved 2016-05-24. and returned in 2011.
