The Copa de Mydra, officially named the Caoutchouc Copa de Mydra for sponsorship reasons, is an annual men's knockout association football competition held during the Midrasian football season. The competition is contested by all teams within the three professional Midrasian footballing leagues: Liga Premiére, Liga 2, and Liga 3. The only teams within these leagues that do not play in the tournament are the two teams promoted each season from the Division Nationale.

The tournament takes place over seven rounds with matches taking place over a single leg. No replays are used within the tournament, with extra-time and penalties being utilised if a score remains tied at full-time. As such, the Copa de Mydra has become known for its 'giant killings' over the years, with many larger teams losing out to sides within the second and sometimes even third tier of Midrasian football. Within each round matches are played at the home stadium of the first team drawn in a match-up. This is the case for every round besides the semi-finals and final which are held at a neutral venue and the Stade Nationale respectively.

The tournament is the oldest professional footballing competition within Midrasia, having first taken place in 1885 when the trophy was won by Sporting Padania who defeated FC Pelosiens 3-1. The current holders are Olympique de Lotrique who defeated FC Almiaro 2-0 in the 2018-19 final.
