On Saturday, April 19th, The Plug joined five other leading culture brands — Homecoming, Motherland, Native, Street Souk, and Waf — for a spirited edition of the Homecoming ’25 Cup.
The tournament format featured two groups of three teams each, with 12-minute matches in the group stage and a 20-minute final to determine the overall winner. Teams were limited to eight players each and required to wear full Nike kits, including jerseys, shorts, and boots. While new boots were provided, players were encouraged to bring their own pairs for maximum comfort.
A standout twist this year was the Gamechanger: for the final match, each team was joined by one half of football legend JayJay Okocha, with a coin toss determining who selected their side of the legend first.
