What is the Unity Cup?

The Unity Cup is an international tournament staged at The Valley — the home of Charlton Athletic in south London, a ground with deep Jamaican connections.

It brings together nations with strong diaspora ties to the United Kingdom. The 2026 edition featured Jamaica, Nigeria, India and Zimbabwe, with the Reggae Boyz reaching the final before falling to Nigeria.

For Jamaica, it is a chance to play in front of a passionate UK-based fanbase and give emerging players valuable minutes against international opposition.
