Clemens Khaiseb, striker from Namibia.

Played for Woolston and Christchurch City (a subsequent amalgamation of Woolston and Chch Technical) in the national league in the late 1990's and early 2000's

He was Chch Tech not Woolston ?

Clem played national league in the summer for Woolston in 1997-98 which became Christchurch City (a temporary amalgamation of Woolston with Tech for national league purposes 2000 - 2002) and played for Chch Tech in the old Southern League (which became the South Island League briefly before splitting into Southern and Mainland Premier Leagues) in the winter in the same period. He played for Western in the mid-1990's in local football I believe.

Woolston and Tech reverted to being seperate entities again in 2002 when Canterbury United took over the national league franchise. They merged again in 2007 to form Woolston Technical and that entitiy merged with Cashmere Wanderers in 2012 to form the current Cashmere Technical club.

In one memorable game in the 1997 - 98 national summer league both Namibian international Clem Khaiseb and future Chilean international Patricio Almendra scored hat-tricks in a 4-3 home win for Woolston.
