The S.League has reported changes for the 2015 season.

1. The ailing football league downsizes from 12 teams to 10 next year.
2. Maximum of five players aged 30 and above for a 22-man squad.
3. Minimum of three players aged 25 and under for a 22-man squad.
4. Maximum of four players over 30 years old for a 20-man squad.
5. Minimum of two in the 25-and-under bracket for a 20-man squad.
6. As in the 2014 season, five foreign players will be allowed for each team, but incentives will be given to those that recruit one aged 21 and under.

The S.League did not respond to TODAY’s queries on the changes by press time on Tuesday night (Nov 4).

Tanjong Pagar United, one of S.League’s founding clubs, announced on Sunday that they will sit out the 2015 season because of money issues.

This is the second time the Queenstown-based Jaguars have resorted to withdrawing from the league, after having done so in 2004.

Two other sides — Hougang United and Woodlands Wellington, which finished seventh and 11th, respectively, this season — will merge for next year.
