About the Masters Football League MFL

The Masters Football League MFL is a Malaysian social football league open to Malaysian social teams comprising exclusively of players over the age of 40.

The league was founded in 2014 with the goal of providing a friendly and purely social football platform for senior veterans to continue in or re-enter the arena of football after reaching the age of 40.

The MFL currently has two divisions, the Red Division and the Green Division. Each division consists of 8 teams. The teams play each other once in a round-robin format, with the top two teams from each division advancing to the playoffs.

The MFL season runs from March to October. The playoffs are held in October, with the winners of each division meeting in the Grand Final.
