The date is locked: Saturday, 24 May 2026. KAFCON, the Korea Africa Cup of Nations, returns, and Team Zimbabwe is once again calling for players, supporters, and volunteers to step forward.

For the uninitiated: KAFCON is the annual football tournament for African nationals in Korea, the closest thing the diaspora has to its own World Cup. Every African community on the peninsula fields a side. For one weekend, the pitches of Korea belong to the continent.

Team Zimbabwe came into 2025 wearing red and left with the loudest stand in the competition, drums, vuvuzelas, mbira, and a sea of flags. In 2026 we are aiming for more: more minutes on the ball, more names on the team sheet, more Zimbabweans in the crowd.

If you want to play, support, drive a kombi, cook, organise kit, or simply stand in the stand and sing, we need you. Reach out at zcsk.official@gmail.com or through the community WhatsApp group.

Last year showed the heart. This year, let us show the depth.
