UP CHOWDECK! UP SHOOTING!

A partnership made in Ibadan

Football is more than a game. It is the anticipation before kick-off. The shouts from the stands. The group chats. The last-minute predictions. The feeling of watching your team fight for every ball, with thousands of people believing right alongside you.

At Chowdeck, we understand that feeling.

We have always believed in bringing people closer to the things they love whether that is a hot plate of amala, groceries for the week, an essential errand, or now, a chance to be part of the moments that make a city come alive.

Some partnerships begin in a boardroom.

Ours began with a shared belief in football, in community, and in the power of showing up for the cities and people we serve.

When we announced our partnership with Shooting Stars SC, one of Nigeria’s most storied football clubs and a true symbol of Ibadan, it felt right from the start.

Shooting Stars SC represents so much of what we admire: history, heart, resilience, ambition, and a deep connection to its people. For generations of fans, 3SC is not just a club. It is family. It is pride. It is Ibadan.

And for us, this partnership is our way of standing with the city, supporting indigenous football, and helping more fans experience the game they love.

Then came the first match of the season.

The road to Ibadan was long, the energy was high, and the excitement in the Chowdeck team was impossible to miss. We were headed to watch Shooting Stars SC take on Inter Lagos and, honestly, it felt like more than a match day from the moment we set out.

It felt like coming home.

Ibadan has always held a special place in the Chowdeck story. It is a city full of character, colour, movement, and people who know exactly what they want. It is warm in the way it welcomes you, proud in the way it carries its history, and loud in the best possible way when there is something worth celebrating.

And what a celebration it was. Shooting Stars SC won their first match of the season, giving the city and its fans even more to cheer about.

Our first match day together

Our trip to the 3SC vs Inter Lagos match gave us a glimpse of everything that makes this partnership special.

The passion was everywhere. In the stands, on the pitch, and in every conversation around the stadium. Fans came ready to support their team, and we came ready to join them. Seeing that energy up close reminded us why Nigerian football deserves to be celebrated, supported, and made even more accessible to the people who keep it alive: the fans.

We were especially excited to bring a little Chowdeck flavour to the day. Fans got to take part in our predict-and-win challenge, with the chance to win Chowdeck vouchers. It was fun, competitive, and exactly the kind of match-day banter we love.

And this is only the beginning.

Tickets to the game, now on Chowdeck

For the first time in Shooting Stars SC history, fans will be able to get match tickets on the Chowdeck app.

No stress. No long queues. Just a simpler way to secure your spot, show up for your club, and be part of the action.

It is a major step for 3SC, for the club’s supporters, and for football fans in Ibadan. And we are proud to help make it happen.

Because supporting your club should feel exciting from the very first tap.

Why this matters to us

At Chowdeck, we are building more than an app. We are building everyday convenience around the things people care about most.

This partnership is about showing up for the club, for its fans, and for the city that has embraced us so warmly.

It is about making football moments easier to access. It is about supporting homegrown excellence. It is about recognising that the things that bring us together food, culture, community, and we dare say FOOTBALL.

For 3SC, for Ibadan, for every Chowstar

To Shooting Stars SC: we are honoured to be on this journey with you.

To the fans: bring the passion. Bring the noise. Bring the belief. We will keep finding new ways to make your match-day experience even better.
