Venues
Matches in the FA Trophy are usually played at the home ground of one of the two teams. Assignment of home team is decided when the draw for the matches is made. There is no seeding system in place within rounds other than when teams enter the competition, therefore the home team is simply the first team drawn out for each fixture. Occasionally games may have to be moved to other grounds. In the event of a draw, the replay is played at the ground of the team who originally played away from home. In the days when multiple replays were possible, the second replay (and any further replays) were played at neutral grounds. The clubs involved could alternatively agree to toss for home advantage in the second replay.
The final was traditionally held at the original Wembley Stadium, but was moved to Villa Park during Wembley's redevelopment. The 2005–06 final was held at West Ham United's Boleyn Ground. Subsequent finals have all taken place at the new Wembley Stadium.
The highest attendance registered in the competition is 53,262, set in 2007, when Kidderminster Harriers played Stevenage Borough in the final.
