The Football Association Community Shield (formerly the Charity Shield) is an English association football trophy contested in an annual match between the current champions of England (currently the Premiership) and the winners of the FA Cup. It is equivalent to the Super Cups found in many countries. If a team wins The Double (both the league and the FA Cup), then the Double winner plays the runner-up. The match is contested at the beginning of the following season, and has traditionally been played at Wembley Stadium, although it was played at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales while Wembley has been being rebuilt. The newly built Wembley held the 2007 final and every other Community Shield since, but there has been only two finals that weren't played there. In 2012, Villa Park (Home of Aston Villa) filled in as the host as Wembley hosted the final of the 2012 Olympic football tournament on the same weekend as the proposed date for the Community Shield, and in 2022, the King Power Stadium (Home of Leicester City) stood in as the replacement venue with Wembley hosting the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 final. This meant that Leicester became the first club to host this fixture more than once aside from Wembley.
