2024–25 Copa Catalunya Femenina

The 2024–25 Copa Catalunya Femenina began in September 2024 and concluded in August 2025, as the eighteenth edition of the Copa Catalunya Femenina. After two years focused on teams playing in the Tercera Federación (fourth national tier) and regional divisions, and being branded as an amateur competition, the 2024–25 competition once again allowed entry for teams that play in the top-tier national leagues.[1] Additionally, it is the first time that the competition was run in both years of the football season it corresponded to, having previously been a summer tournament that took place during pre-season. While still operated as a single-elimination tournament, the bracket style used in 2023 was replaced with a seeded format that introduced new teams in each round except the quarter-finals.

Defending champions SE AEM, who won in 2023 with their B team, were instead able to enter their first team – a parent club may only enter one team – before being knocked out in the semi-finals. Due to the format changes, the competition also saw the return of Europa, Espanyol, Levante Badalona, and ten-time champions Barcelona, for the first time since 2019. Barcelona won the title in the final on 16 August 2025, to extend their record of wins in the competition.

Final stages

Quarter-finals

Espanyol – the only team competing in the Liga F (highest tier) in the 2024–25 season to already be participating – was knocked out of the competition in the quarter-finals by AEM, the same team that had knocked them out of the 2024–25 Copa de la Reina in October, and again by a goal from the former Espanyol player María Lara.[23]

Final

In April 2025, Jaume Plaza of the Catalan Football Federation (FCF) suggested that the final could be played at the Nova Creu Alta in Sabadell, but did not give definitive plans.[25] The final was significantly delayed, due to the FCF struggling to secure a stadium;[26] Barcelona announced in July that it would be played on 16 August 2025, during pre-season of the 2025–26 season.[27]
