Complete List of FA Community Shield Winners
The FA Community Shield, first introduced at the beginning of the 1907/08 season, has a storied history. Originally called the Sheriff of London Charity Shield, the competition began in 1898 as a match between a team of professional players from the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) and a team of amateur players, reflecting the gentlemen versus players tradition. When amateur clubs joined the Football Association, the event was renamed the Football Association Charity Shield and adjusted the format.
In 1974, FA Secretary Ted Croker suggested that “The FA Charity Shield” (known by this name from 1908 to 2002) be held at Wembley Stadium as the opening event of a new season. This match would pit the reigning League champions against the FA Cup winners. Before this proposal, the Shield was considered a less significant event, with the match being hosted at various club grounds and often featuring teams that hadn’t won any major trophies.
