While at Lomagundi College, Farai Mupasiri excelled in basketball, a sport which he went on to pursue up until club level after graduating from Lomagundi College.[1] Apart from his exploits as a rugby player, Mupasiri was also skilled enough at rugby to land the position of flyhalf at Old Hararians.
The same year that Mupasiri decided to focus on soccer, he was also announced in the provisional squad that was set to face Kenya inaugural Victoria Cup tri-nations tournament. It did not take long for Mupasiri to settle at Dembare which saw him being named in the squad during the 2012 season.
