History

Former club logo

Originally founded in January of 1998 as an amateur team, the club has alternated between a dark blue and white kit since its inception. They remained relatively unknown until 2011, when they joined the Telekom S-League as last-minute replacements for Makuru FC, who had refused to play in the league on religious grounds. Since joining, they played the majority of their home matches at the 22,000-capacity Lawson Tama Stadium in Honiara, which has served as the de facto home venue of the entire league as a whole, restricting the club to play both their home and away matches at the stadium.

In domestic football, Real Kakamora enjoyed somewhat limited success in its first few seasons as a professional club, with two 4th-place finishes in the 2011-12 and 2014-15 editions of the league. Since their last 4th-place finish, the team has served as a perennial bottom-feeder in Solomon football, finishing in the bottom four places of the table each season; the lone exception being a 5th-place finish in 2021.

Real Kakamora finished 0-0-22 in the 2023 season, conceding an average of 5.27 goals per match and with a goal difference of -102 despite playing in only 22 matches. Their season ended with a 14-0 loss to Solomon Warriors, with striker Tigi Molea tallying 10 goals in the match to clinch the league title for Warriors, the 2nd-highest total in league history.

Real Kakamora är ett fotbollslag från Salomonöarna som spelar i S-League, den högsta ligan i landet. Klubben grundades 1998 och är baserad i Honiara, huvudstaden på Salomonöarna. Real Kakamora har vunnit S-League två gånger, 2005 och 2007, och har även vunnit Solomon Islands National Cup fyra gånger.

Lagets smeknamn, Kakamora, kommer från en mytologisk varelse från Salomonöarna som sägs vara en liten, svart och hårig varelse som lever i skogen. Kakamoras är ofta förknippade med illvilja och olycka, men de sägs också ha ett starkt band till naturen.

Real Kakamora är en av de mest framgångsrika klubbarna i Salomonöarna och har representerat landet i flera internationella turneringar, inklusive OFC Champions League. Klubben spelar sina hemmamatcher på Lawson Tama Stadium i Honiara.
