By Franklin Nnaemeka – August 6, 2025
C2E Sports Academy Ladies’ have etched their names in history, clinching the South-Eastern Women’s Football Association (SEWFA) League title after an unforgettable run filled with resilience, drama, and sheer determination.
The tournament kicked off with a tough test against Greenfoot, the previous edition’s runners-up. Despite a spirited display, C2E Sports fell short in the opening match but the setback became a turning point. In their second outing, they bounced back in style with a 4-1 victory over Bright Future Stars. The momentum continued as they defeated Extra Cool 2-0 and then sealed their group stage campaign with a 2-1 triumph over Alexander FC, finishing second with 9 points.
The semifinals brought another stern challenge in Imo Strikers, a side unbeaten in the tournament and yet to concede a single goal but C2E Sports showed their fighting spirit. A well-taken strike in the 30th minute of the first half stunned Imo Strikers and ultimately secured a place in the final.
The grand finale set up a dramatic rematch against Greenfoot. After a cagey, goalless first half, Greenfoot struck first with a powerful header but C2E Sports refused to be undone, responding swiftly with a header of their own to level the game. With the match heading towards extra time, Beatrice Sabastine emerged the hero, scoring a last-minute winner that sealed a 2-1 victory and delivered the SEWFA League crown.
From an opening day defeat to lifting the trophy, C2E Sports Academy Ladies have shown that champions are not defined by how they start, but by how they finish.
