Our own FA Cup launches!

In another first for our football league, the Teens Challenge Cup was launched on the final matchday (17 July 2011) of this season. A knockout competition provided the teams with another opportunity to finish 2011 with silverware. In a format similar to most FA cup competitions, the 8 clubs squared off against each other in explosive style as every team hoped for a good draw, which meant avoiding Premier League winners, Bukit Merah.









In a format where lady luck plays a big part, teams threw caution to the win by employing mostly an all-out attack. Games were mostly end to end stuff with shots and saves aplenty.






Bukit Merah survived waves of attacks and countered with more goals to turn it to their advantage by dominating latter proceedings to successfully become the first club to clinch the league and cup double.
