Zimbabwe 1998/99

National Premier Soccer League 

NB: apparently Darryn T were promoted but since this would give an odd
    number of clubs this would require one team to have a bye each round
    (and two extra rounds in total) - apparently the Zimbabwe FA or the 
    NPSL were not able to cope with this problem and it was therefore 
    decided Darryn T will play in the NPSL 1999/2000.
