The Department of Accounting & Information Systems (AIS) at Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) revived its signature sporting event, CUP D’AIS, with a lively summer edition held on 30 May 2025 at JAFF. Inspired by the energy of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, the intra-department futsal tournament united students and alumni in a celebration of competition and camaraderie.

Around 250 participants across all AIS batches, including former students, took part in the tournament, which featured 12 male teams and 5 female teams—marking one of the most inclusive editions to date. The event resonated with the nostalgic rhythm of Wavin’ Flag, setting the tone for a day of high-spirited matches and memorable moments.

Player registration was open from 16 to 21 May, followed by a much-anticipated team auction on 22 May, which generated widespread excitement within the department.

In the women’s category, House 634 emerged as champions, with Casterly Rock finishing as runners-up. In the men’s division, Alumni United claimed the title, while 905 United secured second place after a series of intense matchups.

The event was supported by a host of partners, including Sunquick (hydration), Bruvana (electrolyte), Formation BD, Leo, and HEAD GEAR (gift partners). Infogram handled digital promotions, while Localoy documented the event with on- and off-pitch coverage.

CUP D’AIS 2025 proved to be more than just a sports tournament—it was a vibrant reunion and a reaffirmation of the department’s enduring spirit. With the success of this summer edition, the AIS community now looks ahead to the winter chapter, as the legacy of CUP D’AIS continues to grow with each passing year.
