[1][2] The trophy was donated by former mayor of Buenos Aires, Adolfo Bullrich, and named after him.
It was contested by teams playing in the second division of Argentine football (Primera B Metropolitana, 1903–10, and División Intermedia, 1911–15).
From 1916, the tournament was renamed "Copa Competencia de División Intermedia", while it progressively lost interest.
The last edition was held in 1934 as "Copa Competencia de Segunda División", after several years without being organised.
[3][4] The Copa Bullrich was relevant for having been the first official title won by several clubs, such as Independiente (1909)[5][6] or Gimnasia y Esgrima (LP) in 1915.
