Heading down to King’s Park on a gloomy wet Sunday was not my idea of a fun weekend as I dragged my camera equipment, lugging it on one shoulder while holding an umbrella as I battled the elements in windy and blustery conditions.

After winning the Premier League title Khalsa-A now set their sights on the Holland Cup.

League leaders Khalsa-A completed a 5-3 win against Singh Sabha Sporting Club (SSSC-A) at Sports Road on Sunday April 3 to lift the HKHA Premier Division Cup with 54 points, 6 points ahead of the second placed team HKFC. Khalsa still have a delayed match to play against Pak-A scheduled for April 12, 2016.

With the regular CIHL season matches complete the final ranking of the teams shows South China Sharks way out in front in the standings with 26 points, Macau Aces second on 17 points, Hong Kong Tycoons a close third with 16 points and Kowloon Warriors bringing up the rear with 10 points.

Khalsa-A arrived at King’s Park last Sunday expecting to leave for celebrations to wrap up the Premier League title with five games to run, needing three wins to take the title.

With five rounds left in the regular season South China Sharks still lead the standings with 18 points but Macau Aces in second place narrowed the gap to 4 points in the CIHL League at Mega Box on Thursday Feb 4, 2016.

After 8-rounds of play South China Sharks lead the CIHL standings with 14-points at the end of year break, the Macau Aces are second on 10 points, Kowloon Warriors are third with 8-points and Hong Kong Tycoons bring up the rear on just 3-points.

SSSC-A goalkeeper Gurdev Singh was crowned ‘man-of-the-match’ for his brilliant performance between the post but his acrobatic skills still failed to halt Khalsa-A from leaving Happy Valley with the 49th edition of the Guru Nanak Cup after they edged out their rivals 2-1 last Sunday Dec 13, 2015.
