[TEST] ICMS Southampton League Wraps Up in Spectacular Style, Uniting Community and Showcasing Young Football Talent!

Southampton Academy Malaysia is thrilled to announce the roaring success of the ICMS Southampton League, a youth football celebration that left fans, players, and the community energised and inspired! Over seven exciting weeks, 22 teams across the Under 8, Under 10, Under 12, and mixed Under 14/16 categories competed fiercely, displaying both skill and sportsmanship to enthusiastic crowds every Sunday.

Held at Football Hub @ Eco Grandeur, Puncak Alam and Akedemi Bola Sepak Merah Kuning, Seksyen U15, Shah Alam, the league created an electrifying atmosphere as young talents dazzled spectators with their dedication and love for the game. Friends, families, and supporters filled the stands each week, rallying behind the players as they experienced the thrill of competition and camaraderie on the pitch.

The ICMS Southampton League crowned champions across all age groups, and these teams will be remembered for their hard work and resilience:

• Under 8 Champions: Southampton Academy Malaysia Tyra
• Under 10 Champions: ABBK (Akedemi Bola Sepak Bukit Kuching)
• Under 12 Champions: Kidas Alhidayah
• Under 14/16 (Mixed) Champions: Southampton Academy Malaysia

Speaking to some of the contestants, they shared their gratitude towards the organisers as well as some aspirations for their team’s future. “Thank you for ICMS, Southampton Academy Malaysia for organising and inviting us to this awesome football league. Well done to all participating Under 14/16 (mixed) teams and ’till we meet again. Football is Friendship! Keep it up. Majulah Sukan untuk Negara.” shared by the Kota Damansara Football Club.

Another participating team, Black Hunters Football Academy, shared, “Thanks to ICMS and Southampton Academy Malaysia for organising the league and thanks to all participating teams. Well done and let’s keep going!”

The success of the ICMS Southampton League would not have been possible without the incredible support of their partners. International College of Management & Sports (ICMS) led as the Title Partner, who also gave the Micro Credential and Professional Certificate in Football Coaching to the coaches that were present. MILO® kept spirits high as the Official Partner with their cartons of MILO® drinks to keep players energised throughout the event. G.S.Gill recognised the players’ efforts as the Official Jersey Prize Partner and contributed full sets of Eider Jerseys to the winners and WORLD OF BUZZ captured the magic as our Official Media Partner. Their commitment to youth and community has helped create memories that will last a lifetime.

Building on the Momentum

With the ICMS Southampton League’s phenomenal success, Southampton Academy Malaysia is already gearing up for future leagues which would most probably take place after Chinese New Year next year. They are also planning to organise other community events to inspire and uplift even more young athletes. Stay tuned for what’s next as they continue their mission to unite, develop, and celebrate youth football talent across Malaysia!
