Irish FA Charity Shield

Irish FA Charity Shield

The Irish FA Charity Shield is a now-defunct football competition which involved teams from Northern Ireland that was held on an occasional basis through the 1990s and early-2000s. Similar to the FA Charity Shield (now Communiy Shield) it pitted together the previous campaign's Irish League Champions and Irish Cup winners and provided the opening match of the Irish League season.

ponsorship

The competition ran only when a willing sponsor was available. The two companies to provide sponsorship were McEwan's Lager (1992-1994) and Wilkinson Sword (1998-2000), both of whom also sponsored other competitions in Irish League football.

Format

Held in early August as a single match, if the scores were level at full-time the trophy was shared between the two competing sides for a period of six months.
