Double Action sailed through to the knockout stages, topping Group A with seven points. The local champions began their campaign with a 1-1 draw against defending champions Green Buffaloes.
They then secured a 1-0 victory over Lesotho Defence Force in the second group stage match. Double Action concluded the group stages with a convincing 4-0 win over Malawi's Ntopwa, earning them a spot in the final four.
