In 2003, the then Malawi's president Bakili Muluzi adopted the team and renamed it Bakili Bullets. It was during this period that the team enjoyed one of its glamorous periods, reaching the lucrative group stages of CAF Champions League 2004.[1][2]
It was also during the same period that the club had a training camp in the United Kingdom in readiness for the CAF Champions League.[3]
Kamuzu Stadium is a stadium located in Blantyre, with a capacity of 50,000 seats. It is located next to the Malawi National Council of Sports Offices (Sports House).
The Blantyre derby between Big Bullets and Mighty Wanderers is one of the most fiercely contested matches in world football, and in contrast to most of the other games played in the Malawi TNM Super League, matches between the two rivals always attract a large fanbase.
