ANZA Soccer – information re external leagues we participate in
Most ANZA Soccer Competition Teams represent ANZA Soccer in the JSSL Singapore National Youth Leagues, typically playing ten out of twelve Sundays (Division 1) or seven out of twelve (Division 2 and below) per Season. The 2023 Season 2 starts on the 10th of September and runs until early December. The 2024 Season 1 runs from late January to mid May 2024. We will also be entering a U8 and U10 team in the ESPZEN J-League and one U18 team in the PUMA Youth Champions League, organised by Lion City Sailors, with the ESPZEN J League Season starting a couple of weeks earlier.
