The **2008 TT Pro League** was the tenth season of the [TT Pro League](/source/TT_Pro_League), the [Trinidad and Tobago](/source/Trinidad_and_Tobago) [professional](/source/Professional) league for [association football](/source/Association_football) clubs, since its establishment in 1999. A total of ten teams took part in the league, with [San Juan Jabloteh](/source/San_Juan_Jabloteh_F.C.) the defending champions.[1] The season began on 5 April and ended on 29 November, with the conclusion of the [Lucozade Sport](/source/Lucozade_Sport) Big Six.

[Ma Pau](/source/Ma_Pau_SC) were admitted as a new club into the league and would be based in [Woodbrook](/source/Port_of_Spain#Woodbrook).[2] After one season upon their return to the Pro League, [Police](/source/Police_F.C._(Trinidad_and_Tobago)) withdrew with the intention of returning for the [2009](/source/2009_TT_Pro_League) season. The Superstar Rangers decided to change the name of the club to *[St. Ann's Rangers](/source/St._Ann's_Rangers_F.C.)* to increase community awareness.[3]

The first goal of the season was scored by San Juan Jabloteh's [Peter Byers](/source/Peter_Byers_(footballer)) against Ma Pau in the sixth minute of the first game on 5 April. [Devorn Jorsling](/source/Devorn_Jorsling), who also scored on the first day, went on to claim the [Golden Boot](/source/TT_Pro_League_Golden_Boot) with a season high 21 goals.[4] [Josimar Belgrave](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Josimar_Belgrave&action=edit&redlink=1) of [St. Ann's Rangers](/source/St._Ann's_Rangers_F.C.) scored the first [hat-trick](/source/Hat-trick) of the season against [Tobago United](/source/Tobago_United_F.C.) on 3 May, having scored a season high four goals in the match.[4]

Following the regular season, [San Juan Jabloteh](/source/San_Juan_Jabloteh_F.C.), [W Connection](/source/W_Connection_F.C.), [Caledonia AIA](/source/Caledonia_AIA_F.C.), [Joe Public](/source/Joe_Public_F.C.), [North East Stars](/source/North_East_Stars_F.C.), and [United Petrotrin](/source/United_Petrotrin_F.C.) all qualified for the Lucozade Sport Big Six. However, Jabloteh and W Connection were 20 points clear of third place, Caledonia AIA, before the competition began. The league was won on the final day of the season, when the *San Juan Kings* used a draw over W Connection to defend their crown and win their fourth Pro League title. Having finished as the league champion and runner-up, San Juan Jabloteh and W Connection both qualified for the [2009 CFU Club Championship](/source/2009_CFU_Club_Championship).

After the season, North East Stars withdrew from the Pro League, citing the state of their home ground, [Sangre Grande Recreational Ground](/source/Sangre_Grande_Regional_Complex), for the past few years as the cause to sit out the [2009](/source/2009_TT_Pro_League) season.[5] The *Sangre Grande Boys* stated that they fully intend to return to the Pro League following needed repairs and improvements to the ground.

## Changes from the 2007 season

The following changes were made since the [2007](/source/2007_TT_Pro_League) season:

- There were a number of changes to the clubs competing in the 2008 season. - [Ma Pau](/source/Ma_Pau_SC), based in [Woodbrook](/source/Port_of_Spain#Woodbrook) were admitted into the league as an expansion club.[2] - [Police](/source/Police_F.C._(Trinidad_and_Tobago)) withdrew from the league after commissioner Trevor Paul issued a directive to ban lawmen from participating in sporting activities.[2] - Superstar Rangers changed the name of the club to *[St. Ann's Rangers](/source/St._Ann's_Rangers_F.C.)* to increase community awareness.[3] - [San Juan Jabloteh](/source/San_Juan_Jabloteh_F.C.) signed a three-year partnership with [Celtic](/source/Celtic_F.C.) of the [Scottish Premier League](/source/Scottish_Premier_League).[6] - The agreement allows the two sides to develop greater commercial value, youth and coach development, and create opportunities for the transfer of players. - [WASA](/source/WASA_F.C.), the 2007 [National Super League](/source/National_Super_League) champions, applied for Pro League admission. The club was not admitted as they were unable to meet Pro League standards.

The table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve chronological evolvements, any postponed matches are not included to the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. For example, if a match is scheduled for the tenth round of matches, but then postponed and played between rounds 16 and 17, it will be added to the standings for round 16.
