🌟 JENNIPHER: A GIRL WHO IS TURNING TALENT INTO HONOUR

Jennipher Phiri, popularly known as “Mapopwe,” was on Friday, 28 August 2026, recognised as one of the pupils who have brought honour to Linda Community School through sport, particularly girls’ football.

The rising football talent received a Certificate of Recognition during the school’s Award-Giving Ceremony for deserving students, presided over by the Headteacher, Madam Doreen Nzila.

Standing proudly in solidarity with the young footballer was her Sports Teacher, Mr Kalanda Mbita, whose presence added meaning to a moment celebrating discipline, talent and perseverance.

Mapopwe has already begun leaving her footprints on the football landscape. She was among the goal scorers for the ZASSA Chilanga District Under-17 Girls team during the Lusaka ZASSA Provincial Interdistrict Football Tournament, helping to put her district’s name on the football map.

Beyond the school pitch, Jennipher is developing her football craft with Progress Sport Club, which continues to guide and nurture the young talent as she pursues her sporting career.

Her story is more than a certificate. It is a reminder that when schools recognise talent, communities nurture it, and football provides a pathway, a young girl can transform potential into purpose.

From the classroom to the football pitch, Mapopwe is proving that the girl child does not have to choose between education and sport—she can excel in both.

⚽ One girl. One dream. One football. A future in motion.

Keep playing. Keep learning. Keep inspiring.

Determined and focused.

Mervis Banda: An illustrious midfielder in the making.

Congratulations Mainza Lukas
We wish him success and continued growth.

Dream chasers are navigators of their own destinies, courageously pursuing career dreams despite uncertainty, obstacles, and setbacks. They understand that success is not a destination but a journey shaped by vision, discipline, resilience, and consistent effort. Every challenge becomes a lesson, every opportunity a stepping stone, and every small achievement a reminder that the dream is possible. With determination in their hearts and purpose in their steps, dream chasers keep moving forward, transforming aspirations into action and possibilities into reality.

Growth is gradual.

We will not have a friendly game this weekend. Our training sessions will continue on Tuesday.
