Nsingizini Hotspurs is an Eswatini professional football club based in the Shiselweni Region, Hluthi, Nsingizini near the Lavumisa border that connects Eswatini to KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. The club competes in the Premier League of Eswatini, the top flight of Eswatini football. Formed in 1984 by the community of Nsingizini, the club was originally playing stokvels (community tournaments) and used to develop and promote talent for Premier League of Eswatini teams. The club’s nickname ‘Insingizi Yezulu’ originates from the name of a bird ‘Southern ground-hornbill’. The club currently plays its matches at the 2,000-seat King Sobhuza II Memorial Stadium.
