Orbit College Football Club is a professional football club based in the North West Province of South Africa. The club was established in 2009 when former College Principal, Ms Maryna Marais and Deputy Principal Academic, Mr Tumisang Mosito proposed to the College Council to approve the establishment of a College soccer team to participate in the Inter-Provincial College Competition.
The soccer team participated in the Inter-College Provincial games from 2009 until 2012. The team performed very well with almost 90% of the team’s players being selected for the Provincial team during the competition
Four years later in 2013, the college club went on to buy the status of Rustenburg Sea Eagle FC and started playing in the ABC Motsepe League.
In 2019, Orbit College FC achieved promotion to the ABC Motsepe League (third tier), where they quickly established themselves as a competitive and ambitious side.
After a few impressive campaigns, their hard work resulted in securing a promotion in the 2022/2023 to the National First Division (NFD), South Africa’s second-tier professional league. Competing at this level marked a major step forward for both the club and the North West Province, as Orbit College FC became a source of hope and pride for the region.
