BEHOLD! THE GROUP PHASE IS OVER! ๐ฅโฝ
The group phase of the 2026 Homowo Tournament has officially come to an end, and what a journey it has been! As we move into the highly anticipated semi-finals, here are 7 things we learnedโฆ
1. This tournament keeps getting better! ๐ฅ
This year has been incredibly competitive, with skill, passion, goals and unforgettable moments making almost every game a spectacle. Nobody was guaranteed anything!
2. The match officials meant business! ๐๐พ
Our officials have been on top of their game, keeping a close eye on proceedings and ensuring that nothing escaped their attention. They truly played their part in making the tournament exciting and competitive.
3. The fans have been the heartbeat of the tournament! โค๏ธโฝ
The support this year has been massive, and even better, there has been a noticeable improvement in the behaviour of fans and supporters. They came to cheer, sing, celebrate and create the atmosphere that makes Homowo football special.
4. There is no easy road to the trophy! ๐
Once again, the tournament has proven that there is no direct winner. No team has managed to dominate and win the competition back-to-back. Every new edition brings a new challenge, and the trophy remains anyoneโs to fight for!
5. Local businesses are feeling the impact! ๐ฐ๐ฅ
Thousands of people have thronged the park every Saturday and Sunday, creating a booming environment for local vendors and businesses. From food and drinks to other small businesses, Homowo football is putting money back into the community.
6. Even the giants can fall! ๐ฑ
The group stage has humbled some big names and promising sides. Last yearโs champions Under Light FC, the promising Sunset FC, impressive Unity Stars and resilient Vanity FC all fell along the way. In this tournament, reputation means nothingโyou must earn your place!
7. Smart organizational changes are improving the game! ๐ง โฝ
The Prampram Hood Leagues (PHL) made key decisions this season, including starting matches earlier than before, as well as rearranging, repositioning, and rotating officialsโ roles. These changes were introduced to reduce familiarity, prevent potential conflicts of interest, and ensure fairness and professionalism across all matches.
Now, only four teams remain. ๐๐ฅ
The group stage is history. The semi-finals are here.
Rooney X1
Abia Eagles
Don Ziggy FC
Inter Prampram
Who will rise? Who will fall? And who will write their name into Homowo history? ๐โฝ
