The trophy

The trophy is a silver plate with a 60 centimeter diameter. It is similar to the trophies received by the champions of the Eredivisie. The engraved text on the trophy is as follows:

  • Border, top: "Johan Cruijff Schaal X" (or: "Johan Cruyff trophy X", so Cruijff with 'ij' as opposed to the international spelling using a 'y' and a number in Roman numerals).
  • Centre: "KNVB 5-8-2005" (KNVB standing for "Koninklijke Nederlandse Voetbal Bond" or "Royal Dutch Football Association" followed by the date of the match).
  • Border, bottom: "PSV - Ajax" (the squads playing the match, with the champion of the national league named first)
