The Derbyshire Senior Cup is a local county football cup for teams based in the county of Derbyshire. It's final is traditionally held at Derby County's Pride Park Stadium.

In the 2010/11 competition, Derbyshire's two professional club's, Derby County and Chesterfield returned to the competition after a 25 year absence, after declining to take part in their traditional Derbyshire FA Centenary Cup pre-season competition. Their return was greeted with disappointment by some fans, who saw it as reducing a competition enjoyed by non-league football followers to a "farce" as the far-superior league sides would breeze through their opponents. [1] The fear proved well-founded as Derby County scored 23 goals in their four games and conceded only 4 (3 of which came from fellow professional club Chesterfield in the Quarter Final) on their way to a first ever victory in the competition on April 20th, 2011.[2]
