La Coupe de l'Outre-Mer de football (English: The Overseas Football Cup) was a biennial football competition that was created in 2008. It was designed to have the regional football teams of the overseas departments and territories of France play against each other. This competition replaces the Coupe des Clubs Champions de l'Outre-Mer that involved clubs from the territories. The first edition took place between 24 September and 4 October 2008 in Île-de-France. Only players playing for a club of the regional leagues were eligible.
Although scheduled for a 2014 edition, the competition was dissolved in late 2013 after the Fédération Française de Football decided it was too expensive.[1]
