The club is sponsored by Zambia Railways.[2]
History
The club was founded as Broken Hill United but changed their name to Kabwe Warriors in 1966.[1]
Warriors won their first league title in 1968 on goal difference after Ndola United, who was leading the table entering the final round, lost 2-1 on the last day of the season.[3]
Zambian football great Godfrey Chitalu played for the club between 1971 and 1982. In 1972 he scored 107 goals in all competitions for club and country; more than Lionel Messi's officially recognized record set in 2012.[4]
In the 2013/14 season, Kabwe Warriors was relegated, but the club returned to the top flight after a one-year absence, winning promotion with five games left to play in the Division One North.[5]
