Former AmaZulu FC player Elasto Kapowezha has shared an unusual dressing-room secret about his former teammates, revealing that some players used to sprinkle urine on their football boots.

Kapowezha made the revelation in the latest edition of KickOff’s feature, Locker Room Secrets, where former and current football personalities share interesting, unusual and lesser-known experiences from their careers.

The former AmaZulu star reflected on his time at the South African football club, offering an insight into some of the strange habits he witnessed among his teammates during their playing days.

According to the feature’s headline, Kapowezha recalled how some of his former teammates would sprinkle urine on their boots. The revelation has brought attention to one of the unusual practices that reportedly took place among players away from the public eye.

Footballers are often associated with strict training routines, pre-match preparations and personal rituals designed to help them feel comfortable and confident before games. While many players have familiar routines involving their boots, clothing and warm-up sessions, Kapowezha’s account highlights a different side of life inside a professional football dressing room.

The Locker Room Secrets feature provides a platform for former players to share stories that supporters might not ordinarily hear during regular football interviews. These accounts offer fans a glimpse into the personalities, relationships and experiences that shape life behind the scenes in professional football.

For AmaZulu supporters, Kapowezha’s revelation offers an opportunity to look back at the experiences of a former player who spent time within the club’s environment. His account also reflects the kind of unusual dressing-room stories that can remain unknown to supporters long after players have left their clubs.

Although the reason behind the reported practice was not explained in the available description of the feature, the revelation stands out because of its unusual nature.
