The Aboitiz Football Cup Season 25 (Cebu leg) successfully concluded, bringing together teams from grassroots to veteran divisions in a celebration of football, community and sportsmanship, last 25 April.

In its 25th season, the tournament continues to serve as a platform for developing young athletes while strengthening the football community across Cebu and beyond.

More than just a sporting event, the Aboitiz Football Cup remains a key initiative in promoting youth development, inclusivity, and community engagement, aligned with the Aboitiz Group’s commitment to nation-building through sports.

The tournament also promoted sustainability through the Tapon-to-Ipon campaign, in partnership with Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines. The initiative encouraged players, teams, and communities to collect and properly dispose of plastic bottles — reinforcing the value of waste segregation and recycling while turning simple actions into meaningful environmental impact. Through this effort, participants not only competed on the field but also contributed to a cleaner and more sustainable community.

Winners of the Tapon-to-Ipon (Players 6) category were Subangdako as champion, followed by USC Alumni FC as first runner-up, and Bato Spartan FC as second runner-up.

The Saturday event will feature an opening ceremony, kickoff matches, and awarding rites — serving as a celebration of 25 seasons of passion, community and the beautiful game.
