After Saturday’s rest break, the 2025 CGC Volleyball Premier League Final Phase resumed with high-octane action on Day 6 at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, delivering crucial victories, surprise rebounds, and shifts in momentum across both the men’s and women’s categories. Building on the drama and intensity of Day 4—where CNS extended their dominance, Police surged, and Customs remained consistent—Day 6 further clarified the title race as the championship enters its defining stretch.
In the Men’s cadre, League leaders CNS Spikers secured another important win, defeating NAF Rockets 3–1 (23–25, 25–5, 25–17, 27–25). After dropping the first set, CNS responded ferociously—especially in the second set where they held Rockets to just five points—before sealing the victory in a tense fourth-set finish. The result keeps CNS firmly at the top of the standings.
Defending champions Nigeria Customs Service delivered one of the cleanest performances of the day, sweeping Kada Kings 3–0 (25–15, 25–17, 25–18). Customs controlled every phase of play, maintaining the strong form they showed earlier in the week.
In one of the most surprising results of the final phase, Nigeria Correctional Service overpowered COAS Spikers 3–0 (25–20, 25–20, 25–21). Correctional showed improved composure and sharper attacking efficiency to earn a rare and morale-boosting win.
Reinvigorated Nigeria Police Force maintained their upward trajectory with a confident 3–0 victory over Sunshine Spikers (26–24, 25–19, 25–17). Police showed disciplined blocking and aggressive serving to complete a comfortable sweep.
Offa VC delivered one of their best outings of the tournament, defeating NSCDC 3–0 (26–24, 25–20, 25–16). The result provides a much-needed lift for Offa, who had struggled for consistency earlier.
In a thriller, Kano Pillars narrowly defeated UCEM 3–2 (25–18, 22–25, 25–19, 15–25, 20–18). Both sides exchanged heavy punches across five sets, and the decisive set produced peak drama as Pillars held off multiple match points to win 20–18. The victory keeps Pillars in the title conversation after their earlier Day 4 setback against CNS.
In the Women’s category, Kada Queens recovered from two sets down to defeat Olalomi Royal Queens 3–2 (22–25, 19–25, 28–26, 25–21, 25–13). It was one of the most spirited comebacks of the competition, with Kada taking full control in the final set.
