Results

Fixtures and Results of the S. League 2009 season.

Note: The results are broken down into weeks rather than rounds, as some teams may play 2 or more games a week due to the nature of the league system (games are played every day). Hence, sometimes, teams may not play in the league some weeks due to other competition commitments or re-arranged games.

Week 1

The opening week of the season runs from Monday 16 February to Sunday 22 February.
