The competition was divided into two stages: a preliminary stage and the national stage. In the preliminary stage, teams from the amateur lower leagues competed for 20 berths to the national stage. In the first phase of the national stage, 28 teams from the Primera División Amateur and Segunda División entered the competition, for a total of 48 teams which are divided into 24 ties, with the winners qualifying for the second round. The 24 second round winners advanced to play against each other to define 12 winners into the third phase. [1]

From this point onwards, the winners played against each other in single-legged knockout phases except for the semi-finals, which were played over two legs, whilst the Final was played in a single match.
