The first edition of the Federation Cup however was played in the 1969-70 season, although not much is known about the competition in the early years. The competition is for senior teams playing in the top tier Kuwaiti Premier League, although the 2015-16 edition saw Burgan enter to gain much needed practice before they enter the top flight.
A few editions of the Federation Cup have been under 23 aged competition to give youthful players an opportunity, but this was changed back to a senior event due to a lack of spectator interest.
The cup competition is predominantly played during international breaks (Group stage) and after league match days.
