The first Copa de Competencia champion was Albion F.C. in 1900, the same year that AUF was established.[1]
From 1900 to 1906 the winner qualified to the semifinals of Tie Cup. In 1907 the rule was modified therefore the winner was allowed to play the final against the Argentine winner, being the matches always played in Buenos Aires. It lasted until 1919. the 1921 and 1923 editions were disputed by Uruguayan teams only.
The most successful team was Nacional which awarded the trophy 8 times.[2]
^With Peñarol being recognised as a CURCC's continuity by FIFA,[3] the club included the championships won by CURCC in its own honours. Controversy exists on the date of the founding of C.A. Peñarol. The club's official position assumes a change of name of CURCC (founded on December 28, 1891). On the other hand, some historians state that "C.A. Peñarol" was established on December 13, 1913.[4]
