What is a cup?
Cups are the trophy and knockout layer: competitions where the public story is usually elimination, round-to-round survival, a final, and the object or title lifted at the end.
What belongs here?
This page should contain named cup competitions, trophy tournaments, memorial cups, national cups, invitational cups, and other formats where the cup identity is stronger than a regular league table.
How it differs
A tournament is the event format, and a championship is the title or medal meaning. A cup is more specific: the trophy, the knockout pressure, and the public memory of who lifted it.
Where to continue next
