Career
Majawa began his professional football career in his native Malawi with Mighty Wanderers. Spending eight years with the Blantyre club, he would carve his name into the club history books by leading them to the FISD Challenge Cup (Malawi's FA Cup) and then the Premier Division title in back to back seasons. In 2008 he jumped ship to the Botswana Premier League with Township Rollers and became an instant success, winning seven trophies in nine years with the club before leaving the club after refusing to take a pay cut.[3] Majawa then spent two seasons at fierce rivals Mochudi Centre Chiefs before returning to Mighty Wanderers in 2019.[4]
