It was one of two rival Cup competitions played in that year due to disagreements between the tournament's reigning champion, Club Ciclista de San Sebastián, and some of the clubs invited.

Both its winner and that of the rival, the newly created FEF (Federación Española de Fútbol), later Royal Spanish Football Federation (Spanish: Real Federación Española de Fútbol, RFEF) in Madrid played two months later, are currently recognised as official by the RFEF.

The final was contested by Athletic Bilbao (then known as Athletic Club) and Vasconia, and was held at Ondarreta Stadium, San Sebastián on 20 March 1910.

Athletic won the trophy for the third time in their history after defeating Vasconia 1–0, with the only goal of the game being scored by Remigio Iza.
