The MLS Community Shield is a super cup competition in American soccer comprising a single match. It has been played since 1997. It is traditionally played at the beginning of the MLS season. It features the previous seasons MLS Cup champion (who serves as host) and Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup champion. In years where the same team wins both cups, the second spot is given to the team with best regular season record the previous season who is not the MLS Cup/U.S. Open Cup champion. This will be the Supporters' Shield champion, if that team failed to win either cup (which has been the case each time the same team has won both cups).

Atlanta United are the defending champions, defeating Houston Dynamo in the 2019 Shield for their first title. LA Galaxy is the team that has appeared in the game the most with 7 appearances. D.C. United holds the record of most titles with 5. Sporting Kansas City hold the record for most losses, losing all 5 of their appearances including two when they were known as the Kansas City Wizards.
