The excitement around police sports is reaching fever pitch as the qualification race for the Inspector General of Police (IGP)’s Cup 2025 officially comes to a close.After months of spirited competition, 32 police teams have emerged from a staggering pool of over 160 teams that have been battling it out since November 2024.

The focus now shifts to the Regional Block Stage, which is scheduled to kick off on Saturday, 28th June 2025, and run through to Sunday, 4th August 2025.

This stage features eight regional blocks, each consisting of four qualifying teams. Competitions will be played in both football and netball, with matches organized on a home-and-away basis, ensuring vibrant community engagement and team exposure across various police regions.
