Mweetwa Is New Buildcon Boss

NDOLA’s MTN FAZ super league glamour side Buildcon has appointed former Zambia International Nchimunya Mweetwa as the club’s new head coach ahead of the new season.

Mweetwa now 38 had his debut season in the Super League last season as assistant coach at Kafue Celtic.

His appointment gives way for John Lungu who leaves the El Koppala team after helping the club finish on 10th position with 46 points.

Mweetwa began his career whilst still at high school, with his Choma based school being a feeder club for local second division club Kabibya United.

After playing for Medical Stars, Ndola United, Kitwe United and Zesco United in Zambia, Mweetwa went on trial with Finnish Veikkausliiga club RoPS, eventually signing with them.

During his first season with RoPS, Mweetwa scored 17 goals in 24 games, which included a run of scoring 1 goal in 12 consecutive games. Mweetwa’s second season was cut short by a serious knee injury.

In the 2010 Ykkönen season Mweetwa made dramatic come-back with total of 13 goals in 23 games, of which in 13 he was in the starting line-up. He was the top scorer for RoPS and according to local newspaper Lapin Kansa, he received three offers from foreign clubs outside Finland.
