The FA County Youth Cup is a football competition run by The Football Association in England. It was launched in the 1944–45 season to provide young players who had not yet signed with a professional club, even on a scholarship basis, with competitive representative football.

Each County Football Association provides a team made up of school or league players affiliated to the County Association that are under 18.
