The Copa del Rey, Spain's prestigious football cup, began in 1903, evolving from just three teams to 120 clubs competing in recent editions.
The competition's name changed multiple times throughout its history, most notably during the Civil War and Franco’s dictatorship, before returning to Copa del Rey in 1976.
Significant developments occurred in 1913 when the Copa del Rey witnessed two finals due to a split between governing football bodies in Spain.
Club Ciclista de San Sebastian, a cycling club, made history by winning the 1909 Copa del Rey, later evolving officially into Real Sociedad.
