The 'Scottish Challenge Cup' is a Scottish football competition introduced in 1990 to celebrate the centenary of the Scottish Football League. Entry is open to all 30 member clubs of the Scottish Football League. Its concept is similar in format to the English Football League Trophy.
The competition is of a straightforward knockout format and commences early in the Scottish football season. The final usually takes place in October or November at a neutral stadium located close to the two competing clubs.
The current holders of the trophy are Ross County, who beat Clyde on penalties after a 1-1 draw at McDiarmid Park in the final in November 2006.
