The Zimbabwe national football team, nicknamed The Warriors, is the national team of Zimbabwe and is controlled by the Zimbabwe Football Association. They were known as the Southern Rhodesia national football team from 1939–1964, then the Rhodesia national football team until 1980, when Rhodesia became Zimbabwe.

They have never qualified for the World Cup finals, and did not qualify for their first African Nations Cup until 2004. They were Unofficial Football World Champions between their 2–0 win over Angola on 27 March 2005 and their 5–1 defeat to Nigeria on 8 October 2005. The country's most successful club are Dynamos F.C..

The Zimbabwean football champions are the winners of the highest league in Zimbabwean football, presently the Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League. The Premier Soccer League was founded in 1980, after the country's independence and change of name from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe, as a successor to the Rhodesia National Football League, formed in 1962. Formed by the Zimbabwe Football Association, itself formed in 1965 as the Rhodesia Football Association, the League broke away from the Association before the 1993 season.

The first champions of the Rhodesia National Football League were Bulawayo Rovers, who also won the inaugural Cup of Rhodesia during the same year to claim the Double during the country's first season of nationally organised competition. Since then, the championship has been largely dominated by teams from the country's capital, Harare (Salisbury until 1982), and second-largest city, Bulawayo: all but two of the 48 championships contested in the country have been won by a team based in one of these two cities. The incumbent champions of the Premier Soccer League are Gunners, from Harare, who won their first title during the 2009 season.
