SINGAPORE, 5 SEPTEMBER 2020 – After three months, we are a little sad but also proud to say that the 25 Moments in 25 Years campaign has drawn to a close!

 

Announced on 6 June, the endeavour involved 25 selected matches from the past quarter-century starting from 1996, the inaugural season of the S.LEAGUE – rebranded to the SPL in 2017 – being broadcast in full on the SPL Facebook page. This took place every Tuesday and Friday, allowing fans to relive the thrills, spills and skills through the years from the comfort of their own homes.

 

Throughout the campaign, other interactive options were rolled out to complement the broadcasts. These included fan polls for selected matches, online quizzes on our Instagram Story as well as a voting campaign to decide Singapore’s greatest football team that ended with Geylang United’s Class of 2001 being crowned as victors. Numerous throwback images from the past 25 years were also showcased on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram channels.
