Wikipedia - Durban City F.C. (2024)
Durban City is a South African football club based in the city of Durban. They were previously called Maritzburg United, and were based in the city of Pietermaritzburg. They were promoted to the Premiership at the end of the 2024–25 National First Division season.
History
The club was formed in 1981 and initially played in the Federation Professional League.
Move to Durban
In August 2024, the club announced that it was changing its name to Durban City, and moving from Pietermaritzburg to Chatsworth in Durban. After their relegation from the 2022–23 Premiership, they were barred by the Msunduzi Local Municipality from using the Harry Gwala Stadium, which was reserved for Royal AM, and were forced to play their home games at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Durban, far from their fan base. With the club incurring an extra R60 000 in expenses for each home game as a result, the club decided to rebase themselves in Durban.
The club appointed veteran coach Gavin Hunt prior to the start of the season. With the club in mid-table, Hunt was dismissed, purportedly for not developing youth players according to the owner's wishes.
Competing in the Premier Soccer League (PSL), Maritzburg Utd has established itself as a competitive force in South African football. The team's colors are blue and white, and they play their home matches at the Harry Gwala Stadium, which has a capacity of around 15,000 spectators.
Maritzburg Utd is recognized for its strong emphasis on youth development, often promoting players from their academy to the first team. The club has also been involved in various community initiatives, reflecting its dedication to making a positive impact beyond the pitch.
Over the years, Maritzburg Utd has had its share of ups and downs, but the team's resilience and determination continue to inspire both players and supporters alike. With a focus on teamwork and a fighting spirit, Maritzburg United aims to achieve greater success in South African football while fostering a sense of pride in their local community.
