Soccer

The Lanka Union first played football in 1920. The game seems to have had mixed fortunes throughout the years. According to the late B. Kula Singam M.B.E., in a match played in Kuala Lumpur on 29 March 1929 between CSC and TPCA, the Club lost 4-0. A Trophy was donated by Mr. V. Suppiah on that occasion.

In April 1999, the Club formed the under-18 Soccer team, under the convenorship of Mr. Sathyamoorthy. Response had been very encouraging and the players number about fifty, from several secondary schools.

Trainings are held every Sunday from 8.30 am to 10.30 am. The Club with the Football Association of Singapore is now affiliated since 1999. The Club will benefit from this affiliation in terms of opportunities to play in league matches and attend soccer clinics. Like the other games, the Club offers the mentor programme to the players to assist them in their studies.
