The Teresa Herrera Trophy (Spanish: Trofeo Teresa Herrera) is an annual pre-season football tournament hosted by Deportivo La Coruña at the Estadio Riazor.
Established in 1946, it is the third oldest professional football tournament in Spain (behind the "Trofeo Playa y Sol" (1901) and "Copa San Pedro" (1941)). The matches are usually played at Estadio Riazor during the second half of August, and since 1990 the tournament always features local club Deportivo.
History[edit]
First played in 1946, the competition originally began as a means to raise money for the poor of the city of A Coruña in Galicia, Northern Spain. The trophy is named in honour of an 18th-century local woman who was famed for her work with the region's poor.
The first match in 1946 was a game between Sevilla and Athletic Club; Sevilla won the match 3–2.[1]

Women's tournament[edit]
Since 2013 a women's football trophy is also held. Until 2016, when Deportivo La Coruña created its women's football section, the tournament was hosted by a local women's team.
The inaugural edition was contested by the two top local teams, second tier Victoria CF and third tier Orzán SD.[3]
In 2014 the match was played in Riazor for the first time, and it featured a foreign opponent, Boavista FC. A qualifier tournament for several local teams was arranged, which was won by defending champion Victoria. Boavista played with old Deportivo uniforms since their own were stolen.[4]
In 2015, Victoria again made it to the Trophy after beating Orzán on penalties,[5] but this time it suffered a crushing defeated against 3-times national champion Rayo Vallecano.[6]
