Moeng was recruited from Security Systems and had a stint with BDF XI before a move to Namibia. Gammu on the other hand was a long-serving member of the former national champions, Double Action. The duo has over the years enjoyed a squad player role in the Mares' squad and was a part of the teams that qualified for the 2021 and 2023 editions of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON). According to the players' representative, Katlego Maphorisa of Orlange Sports Management, Moeng and Gammu left for Namibia on Thursday and could make FC Ongos' CAF Women's Champions League COSAFA qualifiers squad.
"We have been engaged with their respective clubs over the release of the two players but finally everything was concluded today (Wednesday) and unfortunately the team wanted them to join them tomorrow (Thursday). They have signed one-year contracts with FC Ongos," said Maphorisa. The Mares will now have six players plying their trade abroad. The Namibian WSL is seen as a budding championship in the region with the players' average minimum set at P2,000 with an addition of other incentives that include accommodation and transport allowances. FC Ongos are currently preparing to make their debut in the Champions League regional qualifiers to be held in Malawi from August 15-24. Last month the team made a bid for Mares' midfielder-cum-defender, Thanda Mokgabo who recently left Yasa Queens in Zambia. Mokgabo, however, opted to remain in Zambia as she penned a one-year contract with Zambian champions, Green Buffaloes, and she will be playing the CAF Champions League regional qualifiers next week.
