The excitement is reaching a fever pitch at Yaba College of Technology as the curtain draws on the 2025 YASUG League, with a final matchday showdown set to determine who will be crowned this year’s ultimate football champions.
After several thrilling weeks of action, it all comes down to one game: School of Management and Business Studies (SMBS) versus the School of Engineering as the potential league winners may emerge from the match.
Organized by the Office of the Sport Director under the leadership of Comrade Odenike Quadri, the 45th YASUG administration has delivered one of the most competitive and spirited seasons in recent history. From packed stands to social media buzz, the league has captivated students across all faculties.
The league featured participation from eight schools within YabaTech: SMBS, School of Part-Time (SPT), School of Engineering, School of Technology, School of Environmental Studies, School of Science, School of Liberal Studies, and School of Art. Each team brought energy, identity, and grit to the field.
But over the course of the campaign, SMBS stood above the rest, showing consistency, tactical discipline, and moments of individual brilliance.
Close to them is School of Part time which boasts a strong midfield led by their ever-composed captain, while SMBS has been deadly in front of goal, powered by the sharp attacking instincts of their lead striker. Both sides have passionate fan bases and have traded jabs all season on campus and on social media. Now, they’ll settle the debate on the field.
Speaking ahead of the final, Sport Director Odenike Quadri described the fixture as more than just a football match.
“The journey that began with passion, sweat, and unrelenting spirit has reached its most anticipated moment — The Grand Finale of the YASUG League 2025. Come and support your favorite team as they dance their way to glory. Let’s make history together,” he said.
