Pailan Arrows
After impressing on tour with the India U16 team in England Malsawmfela was signed by Salgaocar of the I-League.[1] However, after not playing for the club in the 2009–10 I-League season Malsawmfela signed for Pailan Arrows (the AIFF XI) who were a new team whose goal was to create a batch of players that would be able to qualify India for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.[1] He scored his first goal for the club on 30 December 2012 against Hindustan Aeronautics Limited S.C. in the 33rd minute to give Pailan a 2–1 victory.[2] He then scored his second goal of the season against Mumbai F.C. on 15 January 2011 in the 9th minute to give Pailan the lead 1–0 but a 95th-minute goal from Ebi Sukore meant that Pailan had to settle for a 1–1 draw.[3] He then scored his third goal on 3 April 2011 against HAL SC again at the Bangalore Football Stadium in the 80th minute as Pailan routed HAL 4–0.[4]
While with Arrows, he was loaned out to I-League 2nd Division side DSK Shivajians for the 2013 I-League 2nd Division season.[5]
