Where football and culture collide

Of note in this year's Unity Cup: four women's teams, up from two last year.  The photo above is from the Western Bulldogs, who sponsored the team I played for in the tournament. There are more pics of the day at the AFL Multicultural Programs Facebook page and the AFL Victoria website.

My fellow AFC Asian Cup community ambassador Assmaah Helal and I were interviewed by SBS about FIFA lifting a ban on headscarves for players. Here's the link to the story online, and one to the printed version.
