Qala Saints F.C. is a football club from the village of Qala in Gozo, Malta. The club was founded in 1968 and is named after the village patron Saint Joseph. They play in the Gozo Football League. The team's traditional colours are maroon and light blue. The nicknames used for the players are the "Maroons" or the "Saints". Qala Saints's main rivals on the island of Gozo are their neighbours' Nadur Youngsters F.C. along with Ghajnsielem F.C. In the summer of 2010 the club changed name to Qala Saints F.C.. ==History== The Maroons have never been main contenders for the top honours in Gozo in the past. However, during the last season (2007/2008) the club managed to win two of the major honours offered by Gozitan football - the G.F.A Cup and the Super Cup for the first time in the club's history. Other past honours won include the Second Division League on three occasions(1976/77, 1994/95 and 2005/06), and the Second Division Knock/Out Cup on two occasions (2004/05 and 2005/06). The last time that Qala SJ played in the Second Division was during the 2005/06 season, in which they were able to win the Second Division League and Cup double. One should note that the Saints managed to win the Second Division League without conceding a single loss during the 2005/06 season. Furthermore, their foreign import, Ishaku Umoru, was joint top scorer in the Second Division League and Joseph Xerri was voted as Best Second Division League Player during this memorable season. During the 2008-2009 season the Maroons ended the bottom of the First Division and hence were relegated to the Second Division. After a promising start to the season, winning the first knockout competition, Qala were expected to mount a serious challenge for promotion in 2009-10. A couple of disappointing results meant the team lost ground early on, and soon the results went from bad to worse. The team couldn't even go beyond last place in the standings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Qala St. Joseph F.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
