The name was derived from the South African Kaizer Chiefs FC

Keen football fans and supporters of Leeds United, they drew inspiration from their team's flamboyant centre-back Lucas Radebe, nicknamed "The Chief", after Kaizer Chiefs, his previous team in his native South Africa. Another deliberate name corruption later and the Kaiser Chiefs were born.
