FA Community Shield
Annual match in English football
FA Community Shield ▸ Facts ▸ Comments ▸ News ▸ Videos
The Football Association Community Shield is an annual match in English football contested at Wembley Stadium between the champions of the previous Premier League season and the holders of the FA Cup. If the same team wins both the league and the FA Cup, the match is played against the Premier League runners-up. The fixture is traditionally held in early August and serves as the opening match of the English football season, functioning as a ceremonial curtain-raiser rather than a major competitive honour.
