The league have unanimously approved a motion by the executive committee to change the name of the league

Sadly, New Stevenston Celtic have decided to move to another league for next season, and we have also sadly lost a couple of clubs recently.

Maryhill Thistle became the 21-22 PH Decor Presidents cup winners on Friday 26th November with a hard fought 3-1 victory over Tannochside United
Tannochside were the better team for long periods of the first half and yet against the run of play Thistle grabbed the lead on 30 mins.
The second half started very closely fought, but as Tannochside pushed hard for an equaliser, the inevitable gaps appeared and Thistle were ruthless in converting two more.
A late consolation penalty for Tannochside finished the scoring, on what was a very windy evening thta did little tio help the players. Another good crowd watched on as Paddy from PH Decor presented the trophy to the victorious Maryhill team.

Drumchapel United won their first silverware as a new SSMAFL side with a well deserved 4 – 2 victory in the Cutting Edge Engravers Champions Cup final last night at New Western Park against East Dunbartonshire.
Frum dominated for most of the first half and deservedly pulled into a 2 nil lead, and right on the stroke of half time ED missed a great chance to half the deficit. Second hald, ED were much improved but in surging for a rally, a few gaps appeared at the back and Drum scored another brace to surely tie the game up at 4 nil. This somehow spurred ED into action and 2 quick goals halved the deficit. There were more moments of drama as ED rushed forward, but Frum saw it out. Sadly, two red cards were a symbol of desire to win that overspilled, but the final whistle went with no more issues.
Pictures below are the victorious teammembers and alsoJirdan Penny, who picked uo the man of the match award.
