Uniball Championship Wrap Up
Celebrating University Students, Unity and Competition
Uniball Championship I: Underdogs and Champions
The first season of the Uniball Championship was filled with spectacle and excitement. Gel FC, the underdogs of the playoffs found their way to the finals through camaraderie and hardwork, despite finishing the league in second to last place, eventually falling to TBS Education in a thrilling final showdown.
TBS also faced an uphill battle to the final after finishing third in the regular season and later winning in run up style penalties to secure their place in the Quarter Finals. Ultimately, TBS’s discipline and team chemistry were more than enough to clinch the championship and be crowned the first ever Uniball Champions!
As champions they were rewarded with an unforgettable experience for their efforts: tickets for the entire team to the FC Barcelona vs. Napoli SC UEFA Champions League Round of 16 match.
