SINGAPORE, 30 AUGUST 2016: The Football Association of Singapore (FAS) is pleased to announce that it will be hosting the Bahrain Under-19 and Under-21 National Teams in a series of three friendly matches on 31 August, 3 September and 4 September 2016. All three matches will be played at the Choa Chu Kang Stadium.

The first two matches, on 31 August and 3 September, will see Singapore’s U19 National Team take on their Bahrain counterparts, while Singapore’s Under-21 National Team will face Bahrain’s U21s in the last match on 4 September. Singapore’s U19s will be led by Takuya Inoue, with Head Coach, National Youth Teams Richard Tardy taking charge of the U21s.

Said Coach Tardy of the fixtures: “Every match, especially against stronger teams like Bahrain, presents a chance for our young players to grow tactically, technically and mentally. It is absolutely crucial for them to gain international exposure to different styles of play and opponents of a high standard because this will help tremendously in our preparations for next year’s SEA Games. The Under-19s will also benefit as they are preparing for September’s AFF U19 Championship in Hanoi. We are happy to be able to play matches like these, and will work hard to do well in them. We hope to have the opportunity to play more of such matches as it will only help the development of our young footballers.”
