Kaizer Motaung, de retour après quelques années de préretraite dorée dans le soccer américain, fonde le 7 janvier 1970 les Kaizer Chiefs. C'est en s'inspirant du nom de son ancien club yankee (Atlanta Chiefs) et poussé par sa propre mégalomanie que Motaung avait baptisé sa nouvelle l'équipe. Il arrive à former une équipe mélangeant joueurs en fin de carrière et jeunes espoirs enthousiaste de se faire un nom. Sans enracinement historique, les Chiefs revendiquaient une image glamour, d'inspiration américaine: leur emblème est une coiffe d'Indien. Le club est aujourd'hui l'une des equipess mythiques d'Afrique du Sud avec son eternel rival les Orlando Pirates malgré des resultats mitigés et la supremacie des Mamelodi Sundowns.

Kaizer Chiefs supremo Dr Kaizer Motaung was inducted into the South African Hall of Fame during a glittering ceremony at Montecasino in Johannesburg on Thursday night.  The event was attended by guests from spheres of sports, entertainment and government convened to honour Motaung, who has made a huge impact on football and sports in general in South Africa. 

Motaung has taken his rightful place among the nation’s highest echelons of honour.  “The visionary founder and chair of the Kaizer Chiefs Football Club, Dr Motaung, has not only sculpted the present and future of football but has also left an indelible legacy that will inspire generations to come,” said chair of the South African Hall of Fame Johnny Burger. 

In a moving homage to Motaung's extensive career, the South African Hall of Fame reiterated its commendation for his dual role as a world-class footballer and pioneering administrator and businessman.  Previous inductees include the nation’s heroes former President Nelson Mandela, golf legend Gary Player, the 1995 and 2007 Springbok Rugby World Cup winning teams, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the 1995 African Nations Cup-winning Bafana Bafana team.
