Official name: The Football Association Challenge Cup
Number of participants: more than 800 (as for 2015)
Since the FA Cup is the oldest football tournament, it was the contest, to which first football rules were applied. The tournament regulations were changed far too many times over its history, but some of their parts have been preserved from the very first days. For example, the Cup has always been played in accordance with the play-off system (in a knockout format). Draw automatically defines each round participants. It also determines the club hosting the first match.
