Chicken Inn is a Zimbabwean football club based in Bulawayo. They play in the top division of Zimbabwean football, the Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League.[1]

The team's name comes from its major sponsor, a large Zimbabwean fast food retailer.

History

[edit | edit source]

Chicken Inn was formed either in 1997[2] or in 2004 as Bakers Inn.[3] Their league title in 2015 was the first in their history following promotion to the top flight in 2011.[2]

Head coach Joey Antipas joined the club in 2013, and successfully guided them into the CAF Champions League for the first time in their history after a league campaign that saw them lose just five out of 30 matches.[2]
