Kor Royal Cup (Thai: ถ้วยพระราชทาน ก. ; ถ้วย ก.) or in old name Yai Cup (Thai: ถ้วยใหญ่) (Changed the name in 1963) was the highest level of club football competition which competed in the tournament in Thailand from 1916-1995. It was founded by Football Association of Thailand in 1916. Department of Performing Arts was the first team that won this competition.

In 1996, Thai League T1 was formed by the Football Association of Thailand to act as the top professional football league in place of Kor Royal cup. For this Reason, Kor Royal Cup has been adapted to be the trophy contested annually between the champions and the runners-up of Thai Premier League up to 2009.

Since 2010, the trophy has been changed to be annual competitions at the beginning of each season between the champions of Thai League T1 and the champions of Thai FA Cup.

Since 2016, After Somyot Poompanmoung won the election and became the president of the Football Association in February 2016, the new Association decided to promote the Kor Royal Cup trophy from the Super Cup to be the reward of the Thai League T1 champions. The Kor Royal Cup has returned as the top level trophy again since it was the highest level of club football competition which competed in the tournament in Thailand from 1916–1995.
