Vision for Zambian soccer

I am committed to upholding the highest levels of professionalism and attain levels of distinction for Zambian Football.

Together, we will take Zambian Football into a new dawn both on an off the field; Nationally, Continentally and Globally.

Through FAZ and its members we will endeavour to galvanise the Nation, by reigniting the passion of each and every Zambian for their National Teams.

We will strive to attain the highest standard of football, through sustained development, key partnerships and International exposure.



History of a Legend

A legend of the African game in the 80s and 90s, Kalusha Bwalya was recently elected president of the Zambian Football Association, and traveled to Zurich in that capacity to meet with the FIFA President on Friday 19th September 2008. Although a star performer with a number of European clubs, Bwalya never graced the FIFA World Cup™ finals with his country, and his main objective as Zambia's new footballing is take Zambian football to the highest level of competition so that the Chipolopolo can claim the title of continental powerhouse and global force.
