[ 1] Unam (Windhoek)
NB: the 1990 edition was the first;
some sources credit Black Africa with winning the 1997 edition but
that is certainly wrong and refers to the Metlife Superchamp Cup;
cup wins reported for Orlando Pirates (1986 and 1990) and Young Ones
(1988) must refer to a different tournament (the Metropolitan Cup
in the case of Young Ones so possibly also for Orlando Pirates);
in 2010 African Stars became the first team since the Namibian
independence in 1990 to win the league-and-cup double.
1911 MTV Usakos
1912 MTV Usakos
1913 MTV Usakos 6-2 SK Omaruru
NB: the 1913 edition was the fourth, so presumably it was first played for in 1910;
as their 1913 win was their third in succession, the first trophy must have been
won by another club than MTV (Männer-Turn-Verein) Usakos.
