The 1992 Yorkshire Cup was the eighty-fifth and last occasion on which the Yorkshire Cup competition had been held. Wakefield Trinity won the trophy by beating Sheffield Eagles by the score of 29-16

Background

This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants but one "leavers", Scarborough Pirates having folded after just one season and a large loss, and so the total of entries decreased by one from last season, to a total of eighteen.
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.

Comments

General information for those unfamiliar

The Rugby League Yorkshire Cup competition was a knock-out competition between (mainly professional) rugby league clubs from the county of Yorkshire. The actual area was at times increased to encompass other teams from outside the county such as Newcastle, Mansfield, Coventry, and even London (in the form of Acton & Willesden).
The Rugby League season always (until the onset of "Summer Rugby" in 1996) ran from around August-time through to around May-time and this competition always took place early in the season, in the Autumn, with the final taking place in (or just before) December (The only exception to this was when disruption of the fixture list was caused during, and immediately after, the two World Wars)

Postscript

To date, this was the last season for the Yorkshire (and Lancashire Cup) competitions, which except for the break due to the two World Wars, had taken place annually since its inauguration in the 1905–06 season.
It was fitting that all the major players, with the possible exceptions of Keighley Cougars, Bramley, Doncaster and Sheffield Eagles had their name inscribed on the trophy, during the eighty-five occasions on which the tournament took place, and possible just as well the no "none-Yorkshire" club managed to win the trophy during that period! It was only after the two county finals had been played that it was announced that both competitions were to be scrapped; news which came as a major surprise and shock to the fans. The reasons given by the ruling body, the Rugby Football League, were that it was deemed the cup was adding to fixture congestion for more successful sides and also that a local county cup did not fit the modern image of Rugby League.
