FAS Names 20-Man Squad For Thanh Nien Under-21 International Football Tournament 2013

SINGAPORE, 10 October 2013: The Football Association of Singapore (FAS) is pleased to announce the squad list of the National Under-21 team that will be representing Singapore in the Thanh Nien Under-21 International Football Tournament 2013. The tournament will run from 10 to 23 October 2013 in Ninh Thuan, Vietnam. The team will compete against Under-21 teams from Sydney FC, Vietnam, Myanmar and Malaysia. Singapore will play their first match against Sydney FC Under-21 on Sunday, 13 October 2013.

Deputy Director of Development and Planning, Ridzal Saat is confident that the young team’s participation in this annual tournament will add to their international experience: “Participation in international tournaments like these against strong opponents is important for the development of our young players. Many of these players will potentially represent Singapore in the 2015 SEA Games, and this experience will prove to be a fruitful one for them. Most of these players also play for the S.League and I hope that the exposure received from this tournament will be able to further enhance the standard of play amongst them. The team will certainly put in their best efforts for the tournament as they strive to put up a good showing.”

The team departed earlier this morning. We wish the team all the best for the championship!
