A PROPOSAL: 2008 MASTERS LEAGUE FA CUP
KSAMLA FA CUP - Seeded Teams
With the highly successful and competitive 2007 NCB Capital Markets Masters Football League generating so much excitement and interest among the players and fans, many are looking forward to the 2008 season, and it may now be timely to take the next step in the evolution of the Kingston and St. Andrew Masters Football League Association (KSAMLA). I propose that the next step be the inauguration of the KSAMLA Football Association Cup (KSAML FA Cup) to kick off the 2008 season.
The KSAMAL FA Cup would be a Knock-Out (KO) competition similar to the FA Cup in England. Of course, for budget purposes, it could take the form of a single game KO instead of a home and away event.
The format would see the top six (6) teams in the 2007 NCBCM Masters League overall standings being seeded to the Round of 16, and the other twenty (20) teams entering a single game preliminary round KO with the ten (10) winners joining the six (6) seeded teams in the Round of 16.
Preliminary Round Teams
Under the proposed format, the FA Cup would see a total of twenty-six (26) games; thirteen (13) double-headers, including the FA Cup Championship Final and a third place game. The approximate budget for the 2008 KSAMLA FA Cup is $150,000 inclusive of Referees' fee, field rental, and Match Inspectors' fee. A entry fee of $5,000 per affiliate would easily make the FA Cup almost self sufficient. Of course, obtaining a sponsor for the event is the ideal.
The KSAMAL FA Cup could run concurrently with an early start date in March of the 2008 NCBCM Masters League, with certain days being designated as FA Cup dates. - Proposed by Bertram Scott, PRO

The first Executives were Arnold McDonald (President), Vermont Samuda (Secretary), Peter Hamilton (Treasurer), Anthony Smith (Public Relations Officer), Rupert Walters (League Director), Peter Moses (League Adviser), Derrick Llewellyn (Committee member), and Vijay Matthews (Committee member). The first sponsor of the League was Sports World owned by Kingston College stalwart, Trevor "Jumpy" Harris, and the first game was won by the first champions, Santos masters, at Winchester Park. In that historic inaugural game, Santos defeated St. George's Old Boys 2-0 with Patrick Chin scoring the first goal in the League's history.
Reflecting on the Masters League, Arnold McDonald said, "The Masters League was formed on the ethos of brotherhood and camaraderie. Whatever we do as a fraternity we must continue to commit ourselves to the motto of the League, 'Fun, Fitness, Family & Fraternity through Football'. Long live the Masters League". Mr. McDonald served as KSAMLA's President from 1987 to 2003.
