1992 Ukrainian Cup
Like the championship, the first edition of the Cup had a tight schedule as the Football Federation of Ukraine was given just several months to present the best national clubs to UEFA for the European competitions with the minimum required matches played.
The competition started on February 10 and the final was played on May 31. Only the clubs participants of the Supreme and First Leagues competed this season. It was the first National Cup edition replacing the previous competition of the Ukrainian SSR Cup, which was organized as a regional qualification competition for the Soviet Cup. The last winner of that Soviet competition FC Temp Shepetivka was eliminated in the very first preliminary round by Kremin Kremenchuk. Simultaneously, three of the participating Ukrainian clubs were still competing in the Soviet Cup. The very first trophy was won by Chornomorets Odessa thus qualifying to the qualification round of UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.
