The 2019 Cupa României was the 115th season of Romania's national rugby union cup competition, reserved for club teams participating in the CEC Bank SuperLiga. Starting with this edition the number of participating teams has decreased to seven, due to CSM București dissolving before the start of the new season meaning all of CSM's matches are to be cancelled.[1]
