The decisive game was played on Sunday at the SKOL Training Complex.<\/p>\n<p>The champions have dominated the top tier of women\u2019s football since earning promotion from the second division in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The first half ended goalless, with the hosts forced to wait until the 62nd minute to break the deadlock. Scholastique Gikundiro struck from long range to give her side the lead.<\/p>\n<p>Players celebrate with the trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Both teams created additional scoring opportunities, but poor finishing remained a challenge through to full time.<\/p>\n<p>With the victory, Rayon Sports WFC finished top of the table with 57 points, three ahead of Police WFC, who secured second place with 54 points. Police WFC also won their final match, edging Inyemera WFC 1\u20130 on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>By clinching the title, Rayon Sports WFC earned a cash prize of Rwf 20 million and will represent Rwanda in the CECAFA Women&#8217;s Champions League Qualifiers.
