Rehoboth, Namibia โ May 27, 2026 โ The Namibia Football Association - NFA has announced the draw for the Round of 32 of the upcoming NFA Cup, held earlier today at Football House in Windhoek.
The knockout matches are scheduled to take place over the weekend of May 29 to 31, 2026. Venue details are yet to be confirmed.
Several teams were omitted from the competition due to disqualifications. Correctional Eleven FC, Unam Rundu Campus, and !Ugab Football Club were excluded for specific reasons.
Correctional Eleven FC and Unam Rundu Campus were disqualified because they already have teams representing the same institution and ministry (UNAM Football Club and PstBet Khomas Nampol Football Club), violating competition regulations. !Ugab FC was disqualified for fielding a cup-tied player.
In their place, Dynamos, who were runners-up after losing to Correctional Eleven FC in the final, have been reinstated. Unam Rundu Campus has been replaced by United Stars, while !Ugab FC has been replaced by PUBS FC.
To complete the 32-team field, the runner-up teams from the Nationwide First Division were also included in the draw.
They are Young Brazilians FC (NFA Southern Stream First Division), Golden Biggs (NorthWest Stream First Division- Namibia) and United Stars (North East Stream First Division).
Some notable teams, including Julinho Athletic F.C., Bucks Buccaneers, and Tigers Sports Club, indicated they would not participate this season, citing timing conflicts and financial constraints associated with maintaining players beyond the season.
