Yebo Yes United F.C.

Yebo Yes United is a South African third division football club. The club plays in the Gauteng Stream of the ABC Motsepe League and is the Development and Feeder Club to Orlando Pirates Football Club. The relationship works two ways as Yebo Yes United develops players for Orlando Pirates and in exchange Orlando Pirates sponsor transport and on field equipment. The club is a fully competitive entity and can be classed as semi professional in nature. The club's home venue is Arthur Block Park in Mayfair, Johannesburg.
==History==
Yebo Yes United was established in 1999 as a development and feeder club to Orlando Pirates.http://www.soccerladuma.co.za/news/articles/categories/south-africa/yebo-yes-united-will-be-holding-open-trials/215952 The original club name and logo were conceptualised in order to reflect an association with South African telecommunications companies who sponsored the club at the time.
==Rebranding==
On 18 August 2015 the club rebranded in order to usher in a new era of professionalism. The club moved away from its initial branding concept of The Yes Men to become The Soweto Starlings. The Soweto Starlings concept reflects a tribal greater blue-eared starling bird above a three dimensional ball framed within a two tone interlinking crest which represents unity.http://www.soccerladuma.co.za/news/articles/categories/south-africa/yebo-yes-united-unveil-new-emblem/216525
