Who may participate?

All clubs are welcome to participate in the JSSL Singapore Professional Academy 7’s. Our goal is to give as many clubs and teams the opportunity to take part and compete in Asia’s No 1 youth football tournament. Teams will be accepted based on previous performance(s) at the JSSL 7s and on merit.

The tournament begins with a group play. Teams are divided into groups of six or seven teams, where all teams play each other once. Following that, the top four placed teams of the group will qualify for “Cup Knock Out”, while the remaining teams in the group will qualify to the “Plate Knock Out” stages. The tournament is played under all applicable FIFA rules.

Group League Stage – 25mins – No Half Time
