Changwe Kalale was a former Zambia Under 17 midfielder. In 2014 he was confined to a wheel chair after being in a road accident alongside former Zambian defender Nyambe Mulenga and Mwiza Ndovi who lost his life.
Road accident
On 14 December 2014, Kalale and two team-mates, Nyambe Mulenga and Satchmo Chakawa, were traveling to Lusaka to join Zambia's pre-Nations Cup training camp when their minibus collided head-on with another vehicle.
Four people were killed while eight others, including Kalale, Mulenga and Chakawa, suffered an assortment of injuries.
A spinal injury left Kalale with limited movement from the waist down and the midfielder - who was one of Zambia's most promising young players - was told by doctors that he may never walk again, let alone kick a football.[1]
Death
Kalale died on 17 December 2017.
