The Malta Premier League makes reference to comments by the Youth FA President regarding the distribution of UEFA Solidarity Funds.

The new regulations by UEFA make it clear that these funds are aimed exclusively at non participating top flight clubs (clubs which do not make it to league stage of UEFA competitions), which in the case of Malta are clubs participating in the Malta Premier.

These clubs are given the possibility to distribute up to a maximum of 15% to clubs in the second tier, that is the Challenge League. Malta Premier clubs decided to redistribute 12.5% of their funds, which is the highest percentage by any European league.
