It was created in 1924 as a regional championship parallel to La Liga, and was played between that year and 1931.

The Spanish Civil War and the undisputed leadership of La Liga wiped out the tournament, being forgotten.

In 1985, the Football Federation of Castile and León revived it as a summer tournament, being played in just that year.

Note: The match between UD Española and Stadium Luises, both teams from Salamanca, was suspended because of a fight between players and spectators.

The new name, "UD Salamanca" was formalized during the Second Republic of Spain in 1932, but the team used that name for the Castilla y León Cup.
