As the Leone Rock Premier League 2024/25 season climaxed last week, one of the Freetown based clubs, East End Lions FC have been crowned champions after concluding a powerful season that saw the “Killers” control the top-tier football tournament.

Bo Rangers of Bo Distric overcame Bhantal FC by 2-0, a result that accurately secured East End Lions’ championship without them having to kick a ball. The victory also moved Bo Rangers into third place, overtaking FC Kallon, and added even more pressure to the battle for the final top spots.

Meanwhile, the Killers played 32 matches, winning 21, drawing six and losing just five. Their consistency in front of goal and a solid defense conceding only 19 times earned them a total of 69 points and the best defensive record in the league. Their +20 goal difference highlighted the balance between a strong attack and a disciplined back line.

Bhantal FC finished six points behind the new champions, while FC Kallon and Bo Rangers continue to battle closely for third place. At the opposite end of the table, FCFC and Bullom Stars have already been confirmed for relegation.
