The Teresa Herrera Trophy (Spanish; Castilian: Trofeo Teresa Herrera) is an annual pre-season football tournament hosted by Deportivo La Coruña at the Estadio Riazor.

Established in 1946, the tournament is usually held in August, and since 1990 it always features local club Deportivo.

The trophy was named after Teresa Margarita Herrera y Pedrosa (1712–1791), a philanthropist born in A Coruña that dedicated her life to the poor, using her house as shelter for sick and poor women in the city. In 1791 she founded the Hospital de la Caridad ("Charity Hospital"), specially dedicated to maternity and orphanage.[1] [2]

History

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.[3]

Notes

Women's tournament

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.[6]

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.[7]

In 2015, Victoria again made it to the Trophy after beating Orzán on penalties,[8] but this time it suffered a crushing defeated against 3-times national champion Rayo Vallecano.[9]
