SSFL reconsiders 2026 Boys' Premier Division format after Tobago objections

The Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) is currently engaged in discussions regarding its proposed format for the 2026 Boys' Premier Division. The league has been compelled to revisit the controversial plan following significant objections raised by schools and stakeholders in Tobago.

Sources indicate that the objections have forced the SSFL to bring the plan back to the table for further deliberation. The specifics of the objections and the exact nature of the proposed format have not been fully detailed, but the strong reaction suggests a significant disagreement over the changes.

SSFL president Merere Gonzales has confirmed that discussions are ongoing. While hinting at the continuation of these talks, Gonzales did not provide further details on the timeline or potential outcomes of the re-evaluation process. The league's next steps will likely depend on the feedback received and the ability to reach a consensus among the various stakeholders.
