Namibian football fans had a taste of the new football season as both men’s soccer leagues and women’s soccer leagues begun on Saturday across the country after a few months break.

The Namibia Football Association (NFA) with their partner Namport finally got the ball rolling and fans screaming when the official kick off was done in Walvis Bay.

Premier football action was seen in Windhoek, Rundu, Walvis Bay, Oshakati, Helao Nafidi, and Okahandja where results produced wins for some teams and losses for others and only one draw.

The draw was a goalless draw between Okahandja FC and Tigers FC in Okahandja.

But it was Bucks Bucaneers who had the best start of the new season by winning by six goals to one against Khomas Nampol.

Defending Champion African Stars got a 2-1 win over UNAM FC. While the biggest shock was for Eeshoke Chula Chula losing 2-nil to Mighty Gunners at home in Helao Nafidi.
