The race for the Aeon Credit Purple League Junior (ACPLJ) Division 1 title again went down to the wire as newcomers Kuantan Synergy Badminton Club (KSBC) staved off a late challenge by Kepong Badminton Club (KBC) to secure their maiden Premier Division title on the final day of the 2019 edition at the Sports Arena Sentosa in Kuala Lumpur.
Going into the final day’s play and boasting a 100% record with seven straight wins, KSBC coach Azman Amman and his charges were super confident of emulating the achievement of Bukit Cheras Badminton Club (BCBC) last season when they clinched their first Division 1 title only a year after gaining promotion from Division 2.
