The Copa del Rey 1911 was the 10th staging of the Copa del Rey, the Spanish football cup competition.

The competition started on April 9, 1911, and concluded on April 15, 1911, with the Final, held at the Josaleta Stadium in Getxo, in which Athletic Bilbao lifted the trophy for the 5th time ever with a 3–1 victory over CD Español. This Tournament should have been 13 teams, but 3 teams withdrew, and another 3 teams withdrew during the competition.

Controversies

RC Deportivo de la Coruña and Academia de Ingenieros withdrew the competition before it started. They were against the fielding of foreign players in the teams. During the tournament, there were more protests and withdrawal threats from some teams. After the first round match between Athletic Bilbao and Fortuna Vigo, Real Sociedad contested the match, claiming the illegal selection of two English players in Athletic's side. The Football Federation rejected the claim and Real Sociedad withdrew immediately. The rest of teams supported Real Sociedad and threatened to withdraw. Finally, Athletic decided not to use those players in their matches, but refused to replay the match against Fortuna Vigo.

This dispute was a major factor in Athletic Bilbao's decision to select only local Basque players from then on, a club policy which survived into the 21st century.[1]
