Alongside former Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha, among others, the rapper has sought to inspire his local team up the league.
Last Saturday they won 2-1 at Jersey Bulls to book a place in the play-off final against Knaphill.
Stormzy, 30, and Jama, 29, rocked up at Knaphill’s Redding Way home to cheer on their side.
And it appeared to do the trick, with goals by Brandon Pierrick and Louie Theophanous inspiring Croydon to a 2-1 win.
Jama could be seen enjoying herself at the match, clutching a drink as she took in the action.
Stormzy, meanwhile, headed into the dressing room after the match to celebrate with the players.
He and his stars held beer bottles as they danced wildly in jubilation.
The play-off success follows titles for Croydon’s Women’s and Under-18 teams in what’s been an incredible first year as co-owners for Stormzy, Zaha and Co.

While success on the pitch has come, Stormzy is also aiming to make a big difference to his community off it.
This week the British superstar pledged to deliver a new football centre complete with recording studio in Croydon.
Announcing the exciting news, Stormzy said: “I’ve wanted to do this for a long, long time and now there’s a community space that everyone in the area will be able to use and benefit from.
“When I was growing up there was nothing like this around for young people, so it means a lot that we now have a facility like this in Croydon.”
Stormzy and Jama got back together last year, having previously dated between 2015 and 2019.
The high-profile couple now seem happier than ever, with Stormzy shouting her out in his latest track.
