This year, Diva La Futbol celebrated its tenth anniversary! To commemorate and celebrate it's tenth year, Diva La Futbol spread the event out over two days!
The first day was targeted at School Teams and the second day was aimed at the Open category! This year, Republic Polytechnic Women’s Soccer Team (RPWST) sent in not one, not two but three teams due to the high interest in participating!
On 9 June, Saturday, the Blue team, captained by Imaniah, the girls went in with a strong mindset to play well and last through the entire day. It was a scorching hot and humid day, but the girls lasted through it together putting all their efforts into the games. Ultimately, the girls won 4 matches, drew 4 matches and lost 1. Although they did not go home with any medals, the girls went home, proud of themselves, with more knowledge on how they can play better, and a much stronger bond! Thanks to our captain, Natasha and our senior Fifi for coming down to support us!

On the second blistering and warm day, it was Team Incredible Bulk's turn to play. Living up to their team name, the girls played strong and hard and were awarded 3rd placing in the Diva La Plate!

| Team Iron Women (L-R): Emiliah, Mirah, Phoebe, Farhanah, Khai, Jayme and Aisyah |
The third team sent in by RPWST was dubbed the Iron Women. It was tough luck for them as they had only 6 players. The team played their iron hearts out but made an early exit in the knockout stages. Nonetheless, they left Diva La Futbol with more playing experience.
 |
| Team VDFC (Back row, L-R): Nicole, Zahidah, Salasiah, Wana, Fifi, Sheu, Samatha (Front row, L-R): Mag and Jannah |
The seniors’ team were named VDFC. They played long and hard, almost clinching a place in the champion’s cup. However, they were awarded 4th place due to a loss during the penalties. Nevertheless, they played well and we’re proud of them!
All in all, everyone enjoyed the 10th annual Diva La Futbol competition and are hoping to participate again next year. It was both a great learning experience for all who to hope to take away whatever skills they have learnt and put it to use in trainings and for the upcoming annual POL-ITE Games!
