The 2018–19 FAW Women's Cup is the 27th edition of the FAW Women's Cup, the premier knock-out cup competition for women's association football teams in Wales.

Most teams entered the competition at the first round stage, however there were also three qualifying round matches and Swansea City were given a bye to the second round as reigning champions,[1] having beaten Cardiff City in the previous season's final.[2]

Format

The tournament is a single-elimination knock-out tournament, with six teams entering in the qualifying round, 27 receiving a bye to the first round proper, and the reigning champions entering at the second round stage.
