Rahim Zaidi started the Ghan Kilburn City Football Club in 2002 so young Hazara Afghans had a community they could be a part of while integrating into Australian life.
In almost two decades, it s grown from 22 members to 150, with teams across the junior, men’s and women’s divisions.
Mr Zaidi said the club, which shares its ground with the local Australian rules football team, has helped to strengthen ties within the wider community.
“When I start, I don’t know lots of Australian people, but when I start soccer … now we have lots of Aussie friends here,” he said.

St Aldates Church was the centre of Oxford’s Jewish neighbourhood in the 12th and 13th century after William the Conqueror invited Jewish people in northern France to settle in England - possibly so they could pay taxes to fund his wars. Recent excavations by Oxford Archaeology, ahead of some development works, revealed evidence of two houses which the 800-year-old Doomsday Book suggested belonged to two Jewish families. Amazingly it was able to show that one was owned by Jacob f. mag. Moses and called Jacob’s Hall, and was said to be one of the most substantial private houses in Oxford, and the other house was owned by an Elekin f. Bassina.

Empty streets, closed shops, and broken glass on pavements that s what Hanif Rahimi recalls of Prospect Road, in the inner northern suburbs of Adelaide, just two decades ago.
He d just arrived in South Australia with his family, and what s now been called Little Afghanistan was far from anything he thought possible. After, let s say, six, seven o clock in the evening, not many people were walking on the streets because they were scared. It wasn t safe, Mr Rahimi told the ABC.
