On Wednesday 13th, September 2023, Queen Elizabeth  II Hall kicked out the Obafemi Awolowo Hall in the freshers' interhall football match held on the SUB pitch.

 

After the victory goal won by Adelabu Adesewa against Queen Idia last week, players from the Queen Elizabeth II Hall in the persons of  Laura Onyetube, Taiwo Eniola Rofiat, Ojada Esther, Omolara Akande Fathia,  Sonibare Abisola Peace,  Akintunde Blessing, Olaopa Favour, Adelabu Adesewa and Ande Divine, the keeper, went up against the Obafemi Awolowo Hall giving their best.

 

 The match started at 3 pm with great efforts on both teams but no goal was scored in the first half.

After the break, the players returned fiercely against each other with no team willing to give up.

 

Although two players were injured, the bar was raised as Taiwo Eniola Rofiat scored two goals against Obafemi Awolowo Hall while every effort put in by her opponent to score the goal was in vain.

 

After the match, the sports secretary of Queen Elizabeth II Hall,  Oyebanji Temiloluwa, expressed her gratitude, "It has never been recorded in the history of Queen's Hall that we won the fresher's competition. My players made me proud. The coach did a great job."

 

"With a positive spirit and consistent practice, success is inevitable.

We did this. The time, effort, and sweat didn't go to waste. And this is me cheering all sportswomen out there to go out there and show people what they're made of. Shun all negativity and do you. Go out there and shine!" She encouraged.
