Singaporean businessman Jason Lim took over in 2018 and turned the project into a national flagship - roughly 80 per cent of the current Laos senior squad have come through the Elephants. Home matches are played at the New Laos National Stadium, a 25,000-seater about 17km from central Vientiane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024\/2025 Lao League 1 was the season during which this striking away shirt was worn - the Elephants' first campaign as defending double champions after their back-to-back unbeaten title runs. Phoutpasong Sengdalavong had taken charge in May 2024, and his side finished second, ending a remarkable run of dominance as Ezra FC ran out worthy champions on 38 points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was a season of fine margins. Young Elephants won 11 of their 14 league matches, scoring 41 and conceding just 12 - but a 4-3 defeat at Ezra and a 1-0 reverse at home to the same opponents proved decisive. They also reached the Prime Minister's Cup final in March, where Ezra again came out on top, winning 2-1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow the club on X: @YoungElephantFC\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Surprise Shirts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55567907979640,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/5564\/9221\/files\/YoungElephantsFC2024_2025AwayShirt.jpg?v=1779457554","url":"https:\/\/surpriseshirts.co.uk\/products\/young-elephants-fc-2024-2025-away-shirt","provider":"Surprise Shirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
