The Singapore Youth League (SYL) has been the talk of the town in recent weeks. It kicked off on 24 Feb 2024 with some touting it as a "game changer". The SYL is a national football project that will feature players from the Under-8 to Under-17 categories.
This initiative under the Unleash the Roar umbrella, is a massive project that has received praise as well as its fair share of criticism so far. I sat down with FAS' Head of Planning, Technical Division, Baihaki Khaizan, to dissect the project and posed some pertinent questions.
The biggest takeaway for me personally from the conversation - the willingness to accept criticism/feedback and to make changes if necessary to make the SYL a success moving forward.
A "game changer" it is not, but certainly a welcome addition to the Singapore football ecosystem. -
