Wikipedia - Singapore Community Shield
The Singapore Community Shield (also known as the AIA Community Shield due to sponsorship reasons; formerly the Charity Shield) is the curtain-raiser to the football season in Singapore. The match is contested between the champions of the previous Singapore Premier League season and the Singapore Cup winners. In a situation when the same team wins both competition, then it is contested between the Singapore Premier League's champions and runners-up.
History
The Singapore Community Shield (known then as the Charity Shield back than) was first contested in 2008. In the inaugural match, the Singapore Armed Forces defeated Home United 5–4 on penalties following a 1–1 draw. The Shield first doubled up as the season's opening fixture in 2014 and remained so for all subsequent editions until 2018.
Great Eastern is the co-sponsor for the Community Shield since 2008 and becomes the main sponsor in 2017. Yeo's is the other co-sponsor for the Community Shield from 2008 until 2016.
On 23 February 2019, the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) announced that AIA Singapore as the new title sponsor of the Singapore Premier League and Community Shield as part of a two-year agreement.
The Singapore Charity Shield not only showcases the talent and skill of the participating teams, but also aims to raise funds for various charitable causes in the local community. Fans and supporters come together to enjoy exciting matches while also contributing to important social initiatives.
The tournament is highly anticipated by soccer fans in Singapore, as it sets the stage for the upcoming season and provides a platform for teams to showcase their strengths and strategies. The Singapore Charity Shield is a celebration of sportsmanship, competition, and giving back to the community, making it a truly special event in the Singaporean soccer calendar.
