Five-a-side football makes a comeback in Mbare, Zimbabwe. This smaller version of soccer, also called Futsal, had disappeared due to financial challenges. The sport shows renewed life as Northern Region Futsal games return to Mbare. Sunshine Stars won the championship two weeks ago at Stodart Netball Complex, defeating Glen Stars 4-0 in their first season.

Northern Region Futsal chairman Callistus Keche sees progress but believes the sport needs proper support from businesses. He notes that Futsal helps young people avoid drugs. Keche hopes players can join World Cup qualifiers or face international teams soon. The next season begins in May, leaving little time to find financial backing.

The organization lacks sponsors but continues searching for companies interested in supporting Zimbabwean Futsal. They welcome teams from across the nation to join their rapidly expanding league. Sunshine Stars chairman Dexter Chafa feels thrilled about winning the title in their first year. He remains concerned about the lack of financial support for the growing sport.
