Tura Magic FC
editHistory
editTura Magic FC, also known as Turn on the magic founded in 2005[1][2].It started seven years ago when two ambitious gentlemen, Mr. Jakes Amaning and Mr. Collin Benjamin,later joined by Isack Hamata, decided to start a youth academy.This academy included an u/15 and u/17 boys soccer team.They trained for two years without playing any league or tournaments.
Achievements
editIn 2007, the Khomas Under-17 Youth League was launched and it was divided into two streams[3].The winners of the streams had to play off in a final to determine the ultimate league winner.They played "Civics FC" in the final and lost 2-1.The next season they didn’t make it to the finals as they lost to "Blue Waters FC" on penalties. The team couldn’t participate in the u/17 the following year since half of the squad was turning 18 years[4]. The management couldn’t throw away all the hard work, so they decided to register the team in the 2nd division. they participated in the play offs and gained promotion to the Khomas 2nd Division[5]. The team signed a few promising players like Neville Tjiueza, Teberius Lombaardt,Charles Uirab, Culphin Gariseb and Robinson Iyambo[6].
