Sherubtse premiere league was very much fantasized and
looked upon. Those who are attached towards the game of football in the college
are very well aware of Sherubtse premiere league. The idea of such a league had
landed in the mind of a second year student and he had managed to get some seed
money from Bhutan Football Federation. The first season of the league was
held successfully and it did hold a very positive image in the minds of
interested Sherubtseans and i too heard about it while i was in home.
i had a call and one of a second year student who knew about me playing football selected me as a player in his new team for second league of Sherubtse premiere league. that time he told me about the tournament and in a way i got excited too. upon reaching Sherubtse i saw people talking about it and the love for the game football was immense. the football ground which was almost a barren land was always booked and covered by interested players.

| A league with a change. |
I played for Father Mackey F.C who had secured the last position in the first season of Sherubtse premiere league. The team was never expected to do well as it didn't had potential players and were lacking in coordination and team cooperation. the team went through massive change as it recruited new players from freshers and i was one of them. The team which gained no attention from the crowd eventually surprised everyone. Father Mackey won every match they played and undoubtedly were the best team in the second season of Sherubtse premiere league.
There was efforts from the teams and their management but at last there lacked the efforts from the organizers. Father Mackey had done exceptionally well reached at top of the table leaving behind seven teams. in the closing ceremony of the so called "sherubtse premiere league" there was no preparations. the organizers had failed to provide the winning team with cash prize and medals. all it did was brought some officials and fixed a microphone and a small trophy was there in the front. players were disappointed
, so were the supporters who walked away after all there was there was nothing to watched in the closing ceremony Sherubtse premiere league. after one whole year of SPL, all that the winner got was small trophy and a very quite and unexpected closing ceremony. Cash prizes were given later which made the teams furious and unhappy. Sherubtse premiere league was not as it was expected.
