Singapore’s FA Cup final and third-place play-off on Oct 17 were postponed because haze pushed the western PSI above 200.

The final will now feature Police Sports Association and Gymkhana Gaulois, while South Avenue meet Bishan Barx in the play-off.

FAS said its haze protocol, set with SportSG, uses PM2.5 and PSI limits. Amateur and youth matches face stricter rules, and FAS makes the final call.

SINGAPORE – The Singapore FA Cup final and third-place play-off – scheduled for Oct 17 at Jurong East Stadium – will not take place due to the haze.

The Football Association of Singapore (FAS) said in an advisory late on Oct 16 that the Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) level in the western region then was above 200, exceeding the threshold for amateur matches under the FAS-Singapore Premier League (SPL) Haze Management Protocol 2026.

As a result, the fixtures will be rescheduled and further details will be announced in due course.

The 2026 FA Cup final will be contested by Police Sports Association (Police SA), the runners-up of the 2025 FA Cup, and Gymkhana Gaulois. South Avenue and Bishan Barx will contest the third-place play-off.

Police SA, South Avenue and Bishan Barx are currently playing in the Singapore Football League (SFL) 1, while Gymkhana Gaulois play in SFL 2.

The FAS haze advisory said that the FAS-SPL Haze Management Protocol was developed in consultation with SportSG. The protocol sets out the standard operating procedures governing the conduct of matches and training sessions across professional, amateur and youth football in the event of haze.

The decisions are guided by the one-hour PM2.5 reading for the relevant geographical zone and, for amateur and youth fixtures, the PSI forecast.

SPL matches may proceed up to a one-hour PM2.5 reading of 200 and will be suspended or postponed beyond that level. The same thresholds apply to the Singapore Cup, SPL 2, AFC Champions League, AFF Shopee Cup and international matches (men’s, women’s and Under-23).

Stricter thresholds apply to amateur and youth competitions, including the SFL, Island Wide League, FA Cup, Women’s Premier League and Singapore Premier Youth League.

Amateur matches require a PSI forecast of 200 or below and a one-hour PM2.5 reading in Band 1 or Band 2, while youth matches and training proceed only at Band 1 with a forecast of 100 or below.

At Band 4, the FAS suspends or postpones all matches and training, with the final decision on any match’s status resting with the association.

由于雾霾导致西部 PSI 指数超过 200，新加坡足总杯决赛和季军争夺战于 10 月 17 日延期举行。

决赛将在警察体育协会和高卢体育俱乐部之间展开，而南大道队将在附加赛中对阵碧山巴克斯队。

新加坡足协表示，其与新加坡体育理事会共同制定的雾霾防控方案采用PM2.5和PSI（磅/平方英寸）限值。业余和青少年比赛适用更严格的规定，最终决定权归新加坡足协所有。

新加坡——原定于10月17日在裕廊东体育场举行的新加坡足总杯决赛和三四名决赛，由于雾霾天气将不会举行。

新加坡足球总会 (FAS) 在 10 月 16 日晚发布的一份公告中表示，当时西部地区的污染物标准指数 (PSI) 水平超过 200，超过了新加坡足球总会-新加坡超级联赛 (SPL) 2026 年雾霾管理协议中业余比赛的阈值。

因此，比赛日程将重新安排，具体细节将在适当时候公布。

2026年足总杯决赛将在2025年足总杯亚军南非警察体育协会（Police SA）和高卢体育俱乐部（Gymkhana Gaulois）之间进行。南大街队（South Avenue）和碧山巴克斯队（Bishan Barx）将争夺第三名。

警察SA、南大道和碧山巴克斯目前在新加坡足球联赛（SFL）1中比赛，而高卢体育俱乐部则在SFL 2中比赛。

新加坡足协发布的雾霾预警指出，新加坡足协与新加坡体育理事会（SportSG）协商制定了《新加坡足球超级联赛雾霾管理规程》。该规程规定了在雾霾天气下，职业、业余和青少年足球比赛及训练的标准操作程序。

这些决定是根据相关地理区域的一小时 PM2.5 读数来指导的，对于业余和青少年比赛，则根据 PSI 预测来指导。

新加坡超级联赛（SPL）比赛在PM2.5一小时读数达到200以下的情况下可以继续进行，超过该值则将被暂停或延期。同样的阈值也适用于新加坡杯、SPL 2联赛、亚足联冠军联赛、AFF Shopee杯以及国际比赛（男子、女子和U23）。

业余和青少年比赛适用更严格的门槛，包括新加坡足球联赛 (SFL)、全岛联赛、足总杯、女子超级联赛和新加坡青年超级联赛。

业余比赛要求 PSI 预报值低于 200，且 PM2.5 一小时读数处于 1 级或 2 级；而青少年比赛和训练只需在 1 级且预报值低于 100 即可进行。

在第 4 级，FAS 暂停或推迟所有比赛和训练，任何比赛状态的最终决定权在于协会。
