KMRFAA U-15 FINAL
Date:Saturday 27th December 2025.

KMRFAA U-15 Tournament.

10 boy's Onside FA are the U-15 Champions after a thrilling 3-0 victory over Danso FA in the late evening final.

Two quickfire goals from Momodou Camara and Babucarr Jarju gave Onside FA a 2-0 lead as early as 10 minutes on the clock, the first goal was a high tap in after a poor clearance header from the Danso keeper Muhammed Bajo, who came out of the penalty box to defend an aerial attack.

Babucarr jarju's goal in the 9th minute made it 2-0, with a beautiful run on the right wing before tucking the ball into the net, both goals were so easy and was because of poor defending.

Onside FA's number 11 Omar Fatty nearly made it 3-0 but his curling left foot shot was inches wide, he was a joy to watch and obviously it would sound as music to elite divisional clubs poaching for raw talents of his age.

In the 2nd period Danso FA improved and were piling more pressure for an equaliser but the Onside FA defense was rock solid denying Danso a couple of very good chances.

Mamudou kujabi Onside's skillful #10 buried the game in the 23rd minute to make it 3-0 and his 6th goal of the tournament. He arguably is the best scorer in the tournament.

Ebrima Bah, Onside's number 4 was sent off for dissent in the final minute of the game to leave Onside with 10 boys.

Onside FA emerged winners as the fulltime whistle was blown by central referee Landing Sambou at the SK West Mini Stadium, to cap off a remarkable year for the academy and the regional association running academic football,KMRFAA
