Kota Kinabalu: Sabah Football Association (Safa) is set to organise the Datuk Seri Panglima Hajiji Mohd Noor Cup and Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin Cup tournaments sometime this year.

According to Safa Assistant Secretary General Azman Mastar on Sunday, the Datuk Seri Hajiji Mohd Noor tournament will replace the Chief Minister Cup which was held previously while the latter is also called the Safa President Cup.

“There will be no age limit for the players taking part in the Datuk Seri Hajiji Mohd Noor Cup competition while players below 18 are only eligible for the Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin Cup.

“The main purpose of these two tournaments is to uncover more new talents in our effort to develop the sport in the State.
