U18s
The U18s went down to the wire as well with Mighty Boosh FC and Inter Retirement competing till the very last match but again the Boosh were just too strong and added yet another youth title to their cabinet, easy to do when you don't have a senior team.

The U18 cup final saw a dominant Inter Retirement take on surprise finalists North Nibbley Nobblers and Inter quickly took the lead in 15 minutes further cementing it in 56 minutes with a second. It was a nervy end and the nobblers were able to pull one back in the 81st minute but inter held on to take another youth title, congrats nick.
U17s
The U17s proved to be the most interesting league for a few people as the lead changed hands between 4 different clubs towards the end of the season and there were a few surprise results as the top 3 teams were all beaten by inactive ai team in the title run in causing a bit of teeth gnashing in consternation. Eventually the title was decided as Racing Tofflicence won on the last day of the season.

The U17 cup final involved yes you guess it Inter Retirement and relative newcomers Mighty Boosh FC. U17 games can throw up some surprising results but not this time as Inter ran out easy 3-0 winners but the big question on everybodies lips was would they have enough room for another youth trophy in the cabinet? Congrats again Nick.
Just a final mention of the youth world cups. In the UFFA youth gold cup we managed to get two teams to the knockout stages Jakswans and Unathletic Madrid but unfortunately both were knocked out in the first knockout stage. In the world youth cup Unathletic Madrid managed to get into the semis but there they faced the current youth world No.1 FC Bozzy, they managed to hold them for 90 minutes but Bozzy were too strong and went on to win 2-0 in extra time, they then went on to win the trophy so no shame there.

SFA Youth end of season update part 1
U21s
Well the anticipated close finish in the U21s did not materialise as the pre tournament favourites walked away with the title and they look unstoppable for next season.
U21 final league standings
1. Mighty Boosh FC 115 pts
2. Inter Retirement 103 pts
3. Jakswans 102 pts
U21 player of the season

U21 top scorers
1. Thiago Ferreira Marinho - Real Darlington 42
2. Lucas Amaral - Mighty Boosh FC 30
3. Bjorn Siguroarson - Fremantle United 30
The cup final was contested by the Mighty Boosh FC and Real Darlington and the Mighty Boosh were looking comfortable at 2-0 up with 7 minutes to go but up popped Fabiano Soares with 2 goals one in the 91st minute to take the game to extra time. Extra time was played with no more goals and the game went to penalties. Unfotunately for the mighty boosh they missed 4 of their penalties and real darlington were able to lift the cup by scoring 2 of theirs, well done A.L.
U20s
The U20s was just as much a one horse race as the U21s with the Mighty Boosh walking away with this title as well.
U20 Final league standings

2. Inter Retirement 48
3. Jakswans 45

Surprisingly none of the top three league sides managed to make the cup final here it was between Racing Tofflicence and Worst Spam Disunited in a heavily one sided affair Racing cruised to an easy 2-0 win to capture their second youth trophy of the season and Paul was suitably chuffed.
U19s
The U19s was a much closer afair and actually went all the way to the last match but the Mighty Boosh were just to strong for Inter Retirement in the end winning by a narrow 2 pts.
U19 league final standings
1. Mighty Boosh FC 86

I do leave you in very capable hands in Andy & Rob & with the rest of the F.A.'s support these to can get even better,So i do hope you do all get behind them & continue the success that i feel the SFA is

SFA Midseason youth update
For many seasons the youth in the SFA has been dominated by two teams Inter Retirement and Jakswans but has their dominance come to an end....
U21s
Starting with the U21s which was a 3 horse race last season and eventually won by Jakswans we can see two teams starting to open a lead in points Unathletic Madrid and Racing Tofflicence but this is only due to the fact they have played more games. According to the lastest points predictions both of these teams will be overhauled by Inter Retirement, Amogen Athletic, Jakswans, Real Darlington and surprise package Mighty Boosh in what promises to be the most exciting finish to the U21s ever. Whatever happens there will be some very interesting matches to come over the next week.
U20s
New for this season we have the U20s which at the moment is dominated by the Mighty Boosh who have won all 7 of their games so far. Inter Retirement look to be on form to challenge the Mighty Boosh whilst Jakswans are not far off and in with an outside chance.
U19s
Currently Racing Tofflicence are leading the U19s but they are likely to be pushed all the way by Inter Retirement, Atletico Sheppey and Mighty Boosh FC. Again this looks like it could go all the way and any 1 from the 4 mentioned could take the title, there are even another 2 teams with an outside chance of competing.
U18s
The Mighty Boosh look to be running away with the U18s this season and it looks like only 1 other team may be able to stop them the amusingly named Fat Kids Always Win at Seasaw.
U17s
This looks like a possible 3 horse race between current leaders Unathletic Madrid, Inter Retirement and Macduff FC with possible outside challenges from Mighty Boosh and Wrexham Tigers.

Last time I checked the SFA had 3 teams in the world top 10 youth sides and 5 in the top 25 so the youth side of things in the SFA is thriving, why not join in if you haven't already?
Finally an update on how the youth teams did in the UFFA gold cup this season. Inter Retirement and Jakswans were drawn in the same group this season and whilst Jak managed to qualify in 2nd place Nick wasn't so lucky and wasn't able to progress to the next round. Jakswans were then drawn against the current world no 1 youth team FC Bozzy in the next round and while they battled bravely went down in the end 2-1 away from home, an admirable performance. The 3rd team Unathletic Madrid were able to qualify top of their group and were drawn at home to Real Upminster in the next round and were cruely defeated 2-1 after the game was force started whilst away from the keyboard and the team picked for the match were all out of position red dots.

SFA Mid season league update
Premiership
A few new teams in the premiership this season and the unusual sight of 21 teams due to the addition of teams from other FAs. Sporting Arsenal decided to play almost their entire season in a week and as a result take a massive lead over second place Panathinaikos RepdieN but given that they have played 18 more games I'm sure it will be a different picture at the end of the season. Panathinaikos are starting to look invincible already having won 11 out of their 12 games played so far the question is can anybody stop them? The chasing pack look to be Macduff, Jakswans, Unathletic Madrid and Real Beziers based on results so far but surely they are only competing for 2nd and 3rd spots now and a place in the gold cup.
Top goalscorers: Games Goals
Mauro Zarate - Sporting Arsenal 30 20
Mario Gomez - Panathinaikos 12 14
Sergio Aguero - San Lorenzo 13 13
Championship
The race is on for promotion here with 3 teams edging ahead of the pack. Jambon d'louest currently lead from PINKNEYSDREAMS FC and London International F.C. but they have played 4 games more so expect them to be caught at some point, this one could go down to the wire. Still a few teams in this league yet to start their season and with only 1 and half weeks left maybe now would be a good time?
Top goalscorers: Games Goals
Henok Goitom - London International 24 19
Godwin - Jambon d'louest 28 15
Fernando Liorente - Wrexham Tigers 19 14
Division 1a
A tale of two halfs here with the top half of the league being very active but the bottom half filled with teams on 100% ai. Difficult to get any picture of this league so far as not many games have been played but early indications show a possible battle between New Saints FC, London IndoorFootball C.C., Cheviot Utd and Pyromyst argyle for those oh so precious promotion slots.
Top goalscorers: Games Goals
Rodrigo Palacio - Cork City 10 11
