Where Talent Thrives
Maningi Youth Soccer Academy (MYSA) develops young players — with a special focus on the rural girl child. Founded in Dzivarasekwa, now based at Jerera Growth Point in Zaka.
Since 2014
Nurturing Talents Since 2014
What started in 2014 as a small group of football-loving kids in Dzivarasekwa, Harare has grown into a full academy — and in 2026 began a bold new chapter: relocation to Jerera Growth Point in Zaka, Masvingo Province, with a rural-centred development model.
The academy owns the former Zimbabwe Women Premier Soccer League outfit Maningi Queens FC. Recruitment now deliberately focuses on identifying and nurturing rural talent, giving the girl child in Masvingo a chance where none existed before. Behind the scenes stands Ten Toes Africa — a US-based supporter and sponsor whose mentorship through education and soccer has opened doors for our players at home and abroad.
