Steve Bennett has been chosen to referee at this season's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Chelsea.
The Kent official will take charge of the showpiece event on 19 May - the first FA Cup final to take place at the new 90,000-seater Wembley Stadium.
Bennett was a linesman for the 1995 final and the fourth official in 2001.
He will be assisted by Peter Kirkup (Northamptonshire) and Dave Bryan (Lincolnshire), with Howard Webb (Sheffield) acting as fourth official.
