Cup Tournaments 2006/07


SwaziBank Cup 2007

Participants: 12 PLS teams, 12 First Division teams, and top-2 of all
              4 regional Super Leagues


NB: the PLS teams and the top-4 of the First Division after 11 rounds
    were seeded to avoid each other in round 1; after the draw the PLS
    discovered that they had incorrectly seeded Moneni Pirates instead 
    of Manzini Sea Birds, having used a league table which was computed
    with 2 (!) incorrect results for Sea Birds, their fifth round 3-1 
    win against Manchester United as a 1-3 loss and their sixth round
    3-0 win against Umbelebele/Cosmos as a 0-3 loss; because of this,
    the opponents of Manzini Sea Birds and Moneni Pirates were swapped.

    Bhunya Black Aces have protested the participation of Luyengo Heroes
    (also known as Luyengo Foxes) as second representatives of Manzini,
    claiming they should have been awarded the place (first Manzini
    representatives were Bakers Pride Arsenal).
