Coming at a time of tumultuous change to the ALB men’s team due to the adoption of localisation rules, ALBWT kept the Albirex Niigata Singapore (now Albirex Jurong) banner flying high by winning the SGWPL title last season, and by beating title rivals LCSWT 2-0 last evening in the first leg of The Choasico this season.
A team built on foreign veterans showing that age can be an advantage, a core group of local senior players balancing life while powering the team forward, and a thriving academy to tap from — ALBWT are proving that there can be more than one high-performing ecosystem at the highest level of SG women’s football.
The job is not done yet. LCSWT will keep pushing right to the end. Competition makes us better. It’s all up to SAWFC and GIWT to drive the storyline now. See you at CCK!
