European Cup Winner's Cup

The EFU European Cup Winners' Cup was a European football club competition contested annually by the winners of domestic cup competitions. The cup was, chronologically, the second seasonal inter-European club competition organised by EFU. The first competition was held in 1960–61, but it was organised by the Mitropa Cup's Organising Committee and not recognised by the governing body of European football. The Cup Winners' Cup was regarded by EFU as the second most prestigious European club competition, behind the European Cup and ahead of the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.
