The Bank Windhoek Fistball Championship kicked off last weekend at the SFC Sport Club in Swakopmund with the National B League teams producing some surprises, while the favourites prevailed in the National A League.

Cohen FC 3, who have been the dominant side in the National B league competition for the past three years, surprisingly went home without a win last weekend.

They met SFC 2 in a hotly contested semi-final in what turned out to be a humdinger of a match.
