The CRFU Cornwall Cup (currently sponsored by Tribute Ales[2]) is an annual rugby union knock-out cup club competition organised by the Cornwall Rugby Football Union first played for in 1967. It is open for teams based in Cornwall that are ranked below the national leagues (tier 6–8) but above the Cornish regional divisions (tier 9–10). Tier 9 to 10 clubs have their own competition in the Cornish Clubs Cup.
Until 2006–07 all of the top rugby union teams in Cornwall including the Cornish Pirates, Launceston and Redruth used to play in the competition until the formation of the Cornwall Super Cup in 2007–08. Although the Cornwall Super Cup is now a two-legged competition between only two sides, the national Cornish clubs have kept away from the CRFU Cornwall Cup as the demands of the modern game have increased over the years.
The current format is as a knock-out cup with a 1st round, quarter-final, semi-final and final which is held at a neutral venue in April. Due to the odd numbers of teams involved, several teams receive byes during the early stages.
