Scope
Since the 2004 inception, this match was decided to take place annually at a fixed venue in Odessa at the Chornomorets Stadium. However, due to the preparation to the Euro-2012, the newly established tradition changed and for the 2008 rendition it has been moved to Poltava's Oleksiy Butovsky Vorskla Stadium. In 2009 the cup venue changed once again to the Sumy's Yuvileiny Stadium which stood pretty much underutilized since the main city football club went bankrupt. The 2009 edition included Vorskla which became the first team outside of the Ukrainian derby between Dynamo and Shakhtar. In 2007 and 2008 the Cup played-off between the first and second placed teams as one of the team won both the Cup and the League.
The 2008 rendition was officially known as Inter Super Cup of Ukraine and sponsored by the TV channel Inter. In 2009 the contract was extended for another three years and later again to 2014. The very first Super Cup was handed over by the Prime Minister of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych.

Famous quotes containing the word scope:
“Each man must have his “I;” it is more necessary to him than bread; and if he does not find scope for it within the existing institutions he will be likely to make trouble.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
“A country survives its legislation. That truth should not comfort the conservative nor depress the radical. For it means that public policy can enlarge its scope and increase its audacity, can try big experiments without trembling too much over the result. This nation could enter upon the most radical experiments and could afford to fail in them.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
“As the creative adult needs to toy with ideas, the child, to form his ideas, needs toys—and plenty of leisure and scope to play with them as he likes, and not just the way adults think proper. This is why he must be given this freedom for his play to be successful and truly serve him well.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
