From 1950 to 1986 there was no Spanish youth league. Teams played in regional and multi-regional leagues (six in the last seasons), and the top teams in each qualified to play the Copa del Rey de Juveniles.
The Spanish League under-19, named División de Honor Juvenil, was created in 1986, with 16 teams, and disbanded in 1995, due to economical problems.
Since 1995-96 the structure consists of a División de Honor with six groups, on a multi-regional basis. The six champions play a tournament, named Copa de Campeones (two groups of three teams and a final)
