Legend Lloyd “Samaita” Mutasa Crowned at Dungwiza Trailblazer Awards

Zimbabwean football icon and MWOS FC head coach, Lloyd “Samaita” Mutasa, has added another glittering accolade to his storied career after being honoured with the Distinguished Sports Personality Award at the prestigious Dungwiza Community Trailblazers Awards.

Mutasa’s legacy in Zimbabwean football is etched in stone—from his glory days as a midfield maestro to his tactical brilliance on the touchline. As a player, he was the heartbeat of Dynamos FC, lifting two Premier League titles and steering the club to the CAF Champions League final—a feat that remains legendary.

Transitioning seamlessly into coaching, the gaffer has masterminded premiership campaigns with Highway, Kiglon FC and others before taking the reins at MWOS FC, where he continues to mould the next generation of stars.

Never one to rest on his laurels, Mutasa recently sharpened his tactical acumen with a coaching attachment at Turkey’s Istanbul Basaksehir FK, proving that even legends keep evolving. His unwavering dedication to the beautiful game and community development has made him a true trailblazer—both on and off the pitch.

The Dungwiza Community Trailblazers Awards hailed Mutasa for his “exemplary personality and transformative impact” on Zimbabwean football. For a man who has given so much to the sport, this recognition is nothing short of deserved.

At MWOS FC, Mutasa isn’t just a coach—he’s a mentor, leader, and inspiration. Under his guidance, the club is building a philosophy rooted in discipline, flair, and relentless ambition. As he always says, “Football isn’t just played with the feet—it’s won with the mind.”

With this award, the football world is reminded once again: Lloyd Mutasa is more than a name—he’s an institution. As he continues to shape futures at MWOS FC and beyond, one thing is certain—Zimbabwean football’s heartbeat still bears his rhythm.

Congratulations, Coach Samaita! The MWOS Family Salutes You!
