After nine remarkable years of dedication, loyalty, sacrifice and unwavering commitment, Royal Leopard FC bids farewell to one of its own, Junior “Shisa” Magagula.

For almost a decade, you have proudly worn the Royal Leopard badge and represented the Ingwe Mabalabala with honour, passion and dignity. You have been more than just a player; you have been a brother, a teammate, a leader and an important part of the Royal Leopard family.

Through the victories, the challenges, the celebrations and the difficult moments, you remained committed to the cause and gave your very best for the club. Your contribution to Royal Leopard FC will forever be remembered and the memories you have created with this family will always hold a special place in our hearts.

As you begin a new chapter in your career, having joined AS Maniema Union (DRC) on a three-year deal, we want you to know that your departure is not a goodbye, but a heartfelt thank you for everything you have given to this club.

Thank you for the nine years, Shisa. Thank you for your loyalty. Thank you for your sacrifice. Thank you for every battle fought in the colours of Royal Leopard.

You leave as a player, but you will always remain part of the Ingwe Mabalabala family.

May God guide and protect you throughout this new journey. May you continue to grow, achieve your dreams and reach even greater heights.
Royal Leopard FC will always be home.

New week. Same hustle. Bigger goals. We keep the grind alive!

Royal Leopard FC is proud to have partnered with the Sihle Mavuso Foundation to begin the construction of a two-room house for the Tsabedze family at Tikhuba. This initiative reflects our shared commitment to restoring hope, preserving dignity and improving the lives of members of our community.

As a club, we believe that our responsibility extends beyond football. We are committed to making a meaningful impact in the communities we serve through initiatives that create lasting, positive change.

The project officially commenced with a community build, during which Royal Leopard FC players joined members of the Sihle Mavuso Foundation and local residents in digging the foundation for the house. The Foundation also donated concrete to support the initial phase of construction, marking an important first step in bringing this project to life.

During the event, the Chairman of the Sihle Mavuso Foundation, Mr Sihle Mavuso, also presented a full set of football kits to St John's FC, a club he represented 25 years ago in the Tikhuba Zonal League. The donation reflects the Foundation's continued commitment to supporting grassroots football and giving back to the communities that shaped its journey.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the Sihle Mavuso Foundation, our players, supporters, volunteers, partners and every member of the community who came out in large numbers to contribute their time, effort and resources. Your generosity, dedication and spirit of unity have laid a strong foundation for this project and we look forward to seeing it through to completion together.

This initiative is a reminder that when people unite behind a common purpose, lives can be transformed and hope can be restored. Royal Leopard FC remains committed to supporting initiatives that uplift communities, restore dignity and make a lasting difference beyond the football field.

Together, we continue to build hope, strengthen our communities and make a difference both on and off the pitch.

Back in the office, back on the mission!
