Coupe de France basketball honours

The Coupe de France basketball for women has gone through a number of changes since its creation in 1957. The first three additions of the competition had been nationwide.

When it reappeared in 1981, it was not a national competition any more and its participation was restricted.

We had to wait until 1995 for the competition to become national and open to all teams again.

However with the gap growing between elite and amateurs teams, the competition became less interesting for the Amateurs.

This led to the creation of a Coupe de France basketball competition for all the teams below NF1 for women called the Trophée Coupe de France during the 2004-2005 season.

Since 2005, the teams in the LFB and NF1 compete for the Joë Jaunay trophy.

Since 2000 the final of all the French cup competitions for men and women have been played at Paris Bercy.

A national competition for the Under 18 age group, referred to as the "Coupe de l’Avenir", is the youth equivalent for the Coupe de France basketball competition for men and women.
