The UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (originally known as the European Cup Winners' Cup) was an association football club competition that took place every year between the winners of all European domestic cup competitions. The first edition of the Cup Winners' Cup was held in the 1960–61 season, and the last was held in the 1998–99 season. After the 1998–99 season, the competition was abolished to allow the expansion of the UEFA Champions League, with domestic cup winners now qualifying for the UEFA Cup.
