The 2025 Unity Cup, held from May 27 to 31, was more than just a football tournament; it was a vibrant celebration of cultural heritage and community.
Featuring four teams—Nigeria, Ghana, Jamaica, and Trinidad & Tobago—the event aimed to foster unity and pride among the African and Caribbean diasporas residing in London.
This year’s edition held special significance, marking the tournament’s return after a 21-year hiatus; it was last held in 2004.
