1991–92 Yorkshire Cup

The 1991–92 Yorkshire Cup was the 84th occasion on which the Yorkshire Cup competition had been held.

Cup holders, Castleford, retained the trophy by beating Bradford Northern by the score of 28-6

This was the eighth time in the incredible eleven-year period in which Castleford. previously only once winners in 1977–78, had made eight appearances in the Yorkshire Cup final, winning on four and ending as runner-up on four occasions. It was also the second year in succession that Castleford had won the trophy. within that eleven-year period.

Background

This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no "leavers" but one new entrant in the form of Scarborough Pirates and so the total of entries increased by one from last season, to a total of nineteen.

This in turn resulted in the necessity to continue with a preliminary round to reduce the number of clubs entering the first round to sixteen.
