Tusbab Stallions is a semi-professional association football club established in 2019[1] and based in Madang, Papua New Guinea.

The club took part in the Northern Conference of the 2019 Papua New Guinea National Soccer League, their first entry into semi-professional competition.[2]

History

The club was established in 2019 as a semi-professional enterprise of an amateur club dating back to 2004 of the same name, which itself was founded after a merge between two separate Madang-based clubs, Tusbab and Blue Kumuls.[1] The amateur side had won the Madang Soccer Association Grand Final in 2018, prior to their move to semi-professional status.[1]

On 11 January 2019, the side was confirmed as one of the sides entered into the 2019 National Soccer League, and had been drawn into the Northern Conference.[3] They won their opening fixture with a 1–0 victory over Laiwaden FC.[4] By the halfway stage of the season, the side sat fifth out of eight sides in the conference, having won two games and drawn one.[2]

The second half of their season was poor, with the side picking up just one more point, a 1–1 draw with Laiwaden, before five consecutive defeats saw them finish at the bottom of the conference.[2]
