Simba SC is a Tanzanian football club based in Dar es Salaam. Their home games are played at National Stadium. Simba SC is one of two biggest football clubs in Tanzania, their archrivals being the Young Africans. The club was called Sunderland when it was founded in 1936 and later on changed its name to Simba.
The highest level of success that Simba SC achieved was getting to the final of the CAF Cup in 1993 where they lost to Stella Abidjan of Ivory Coast. It was the highest achievement on continental competitions reached by any Tanzanian team. One of the most memorable years for the club was 2003 when it knocked off the then reigning champions Egyptian giants Zamalek on its way to qualify for the group stages of the CAF Champions League. In the first round of that year's competition, Simba SC eliminated Santos of South Africa.
