At a special event on Tuesday, Kaizer Chiefs celebrated a “historic milestone” as the club officially unveiled the newly-formed Kaizer Chiefs Ladies.
“This is about building real pathways for women in the game,” Kaizer Chiefs commented in a statement.
“We aren’t just joining the league; we are honouring the years of work by pioneers like Springs Home Sweepers and Joseph Mkhonza to ensure that every girl child knows there is a place for her at the Home of Legends.”
The ladies team will feature in the Sasol Women’s League, the second-tier South African women’s division.
