Kampira and Mudu trebles helped the Reserves move nine points clear, while Chavinda’s hat-trick powered Bullets Women to their biggest league win of the campaign.
Vincent Kampira and Verson Mudu scored hat-tricks as FCB Nyasa Big Bullets Reserves overturned an early deficit to defeat Chiradzulu United 10-1 at Kamuzu Stadium on Saturday.
Mary Chavinda also netted a treble as Bullets Women returned to winning ways with a 6-1 victory over Rumphi Sisters at Mpira Stadium.
Elsewhere, four First Team players joined Malawi’s preparations for the Egypt double-header, while Bullets Under-19 remained on a break after completing their first-round campaign.
Here’s a closer look at the latest action across the club.
First Team
Bullets were without a fixture as the FDH Bank Premiership paused for the November international window.
Innocent Nyasulu, Blessings Mpokera, Yankho Singo and Ephraim Kondowe are in Malawi’s squad for the Africa Cup of Nations PAMOJA 2027 qualifiers against Egypt.
For Nyasulu, the call-up marks a return to the Flames setup for the first time since August 2024. Mpokera, Singo and Kondowe retain their places after being involved in the opening qualifiers against South Sudan and Angola.
Reserves
Bullets Reserves returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion, defeating Chiradzulu United 10-1 to move nine points clear in the SRFA FINCA Division One League.
An early setback did little to disrupt the young Bullets. Trailing to a 12th-minute penalty, they were level three minutes later through Limbitso Chimanjamanja before Zaneel Jussab put them ahead.
Kampira added two goals before the interval to send Bullets into the break with a 4-1 advantage.
Mudu took over after the restart, scoring three times to complete his hat-trick in the 74th minute. Kampira secured his own treble six minutes later, with captain Francis Malikebu and Brian Mwase adding the final two goals.
The result lifted the Reserves to 44 points and extended their unbeaten league run to 13 matches.
Women
Bullets Women put their defeat to MDF Lioness behind them with a 6-1 victory over Rumphi Sisters, their biggest win of the NBM Women’s Premiership campaign.
Captain Mary Chavinda led the scoring with a hat-trick, while Vanessa Issa struck twice and Lyna James also found the net as Maggie Chombo’s side claimed their fifth victory in seven matches.
Chavinda broke the deadlock after 15 minutes, Issa doubled the lead five minutes later and Chavinda struck again on the half-hour. Elikanah Munthali pulled one back for Rumphi Sisters before the interval.
Issa added her second after the restart before James made it 5-1 in the 73rd minute. Chavinda completed the scoring deep into stoppage time to cap a Player of the Match performance.
The win moved the Maule Ladies to 15 points from seven games.
Under-19
Bullets Under-19 remained on a break after finishing the first round of the FCB Katswiri Under-19 League in third position.
Yamikani Fodya’s side closed the opening round with a 5-0 victory over Airspot at Kamuzu Stadium, scoring all five goals after half-time.
The Week Ahead
Malawi’s qualifying campaign resumes this week, with four Bullets players in the squad for the Egypt double-header.
The Flames face the Pharaohs at Cairo International Stadium on Friday before hosting the return fixture at Bingu National Stadium on Tuesday.
