Baalor Sarr FC have clinched the 2023-2024 West Coast Regional Third Division League trophy following their 4-1 post-match penalty shootouts victory over Sibanor United FC after regulation time ended 3-3 in a tightly-contested final played at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium on Saturday.

Both sides came into the match with the motive of beating each other to lift the West Coast Regional Third Division League trophy but regular time failed to produce a winner.

AS champions, Baalor Sarr went home with a giant trophy and a cash prize of D75, 000 while Sibanor United FC received D50, 000 as runners-up.
