“At Varsity Cup, we envision a world of limitless opportunities for Nigeria’s talented student-athletes to thrive playing the sports that they love.

“Our landmark partnership with NUGA is a testament to their willingness to create an enabling environment for serious collaborators. For the next decade, they can be rest assured of high-level competitions designed to put their talent to use and connect them with the next stages of their careers.”

In his remark, the President of NUGA, Bawa Mohammed reiterated the commitment of his executive team and the entire association to enabling platforms that consistently put Nigeria’s collegiate sports on the global map.

“Building the future of collegiate sports is a collaborative effort. Our role as the custodian of university games enables us to identify and implement opportunities that advance our cause. Varsity Cup is a much needed showcase for our students to shine.”

“We have also had a positive working experience with the leadership of Varsity Cup in the past, which is a plus. We are looking forward to bigger strides.”

Described as the Champions League of Nigerian Universities, Varsity Cup features Nigeria’s top 10 university football teams, playing 26 competitive matches in 5 weeks to determine the Varsity Champions while relegating the 2 least placed teams.
