This article is about the youth team that started competing in competitions in 2010. For other Singapore-related national football teams, see Singapore national football team.
The Singapore national youth football team, nicknamed the Cubs, can refer to either of the following teams: the Under-16 team that represented the nation in the inaugural Youth Olympic Games and the Lion City Cup, and the Under-15s, which also took part in the Lion City Cup, and also the AFF U16 Championship. The youth team's honours include bronze for the Youth Olympic Games in 2010 on home soil, as well as second and third places for the Lion City Cup (the former being the U16s and the latter being the U15s).
2010 marked the breakthrough for the Under-15 team as they went through the Youth Olympic Games, held on home soil, comfortably. They got through the semi-finals before losing to eventual silver medalists Haiti.[1][2] Singapore then beat Montenegro 4–1 to grab the bronze medal.
