TSL resumes this weekend

HONIARA City Council (HCC) has given a grace period to the Solomon Islands Football Federation (SIFF) to complete its top tier national league – the TSL which will resume starting this weekend, Saturday 9th.
SIFF confirmed in a statement yesterday.
These were in regards to the ongoing Lawson Tama stadium lease termination which HCC now agreed to give SIFF and its TSL Board the access for the completion of the 2020/2021 seasons.
The lease termination which came into effect on January 1st takes a new turn while it’s welcoming news for the football public.
With eight league rounds to go the league enters Match Week 16 and will continue through to next week.
Saturday’s fixtures will see the bottom of the table clash between Marist FC (9 points) against Malaita Kingz (0 points), while reigning champions Solomon Warriors (25 points) take on Real Kakamora (14 points) on the day’s second fixture.
