History[]

They were formed in 1995 by . Seven Stars was also known for its commitment to develop talent in under developed the Langa, Khayelitsha and Nyanga and used the under-developed Nyanga Stadium as a home venue.^[1] In the 1997–98 National First Division season, Seven Stars were unbeaten in the 38 games under Gavin Hunt, finished as runners-up to coastal champs Engen Santos. The team scored 96 goals and conceded 16 and went through an unbeaten run of 80 games.^[2] Stars merged with Cape Town Spurs and became Ajax Cape Town in 1999.^[3] However, none of the club's identity, ethos, or commitment to township football was retained after the Ajax merger.
