Sua Flamingoes FC are a football club from Sowa, Botswana, currently playing in the Botswana Premier League. They were promoted to the top division of Botswana football in 2020.

History

[edit]

Flamingoes finished second in the 2018 second division and hosted the promotion playoff but lost out to Prisons XI.[1]

Flamingoes won the 2020 Division One North competition after abandonment for COVID and were promoted to the premier league for the first time.[2] David Bright took over as manager from Raizor Tsatselebe, who guided Flamingoes to promotion, in November 2020.[3]

Flamingoes hired Serbian Nikola Kavazović mid-season in 2022 after a poor string of results under Zimbabwean manager Rahman Gumbo saw them second bottom after 15 games.[4] Kavazović guided the club to an 8th-place finish before leaving in after six months in the position.[5]
