Something unusual is happening in rural Sweden.

In a plot that even Swedish writer Henning Mankell might have thought too far fetched, a small football club based in the county of Dalarna -- a three-hour drive northwest of Stockholm -- has become a "national team" for millions of Kurdish people around the world.

It's a club that's given the Kurdish diaspora plenty to cheer about :ymparty:

Thank you for sharing :ymapplause:

Do you have Halloween celebrations this weekend?

Halloween - oh yes, there are scary stuff everywhere! Carved out pumpkins, spiders, spiderweb, witches, ghosts... you name it. When I was little this tradition did not exist in my part of the world. But shops and businesses have been very successful in picking it up from North America.

A nice weekend to you all,
B

Kurdish refugee team promoted to the Swedish Top Football League

Dalkurd FF, a club founded by Kurdish refugees in Sweden in 2004, gained promotion to Allsvenskan, the Top Football League in Sweden.

Thirteen years ago, the Dalkurd FF club was founded by Kurdish refugees and migrants from the Borlänge city in Dalarna County, Sweden, and is now something of an unofficial Kurdish national football team around the world.

Players of other nations also wear the Dalkurd jersey today. Next to Kurds, for example, Swedish and American football players run for the newly crowned first division.

Dalkurd’s sports director Adil Kiliz said: "It is a completely crazy journey that we have laid down, but I always knew that we would be unstoppable."

Kiliz, who estimates the number of his team's fans at around 40 million, tells that: "It's safe to assume that just about every Kurd in Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon or anywhere else has heard of Dalkurd. Of course, we feel that sympathy and support, and they've carried us to where we are now. "

Striker Ahmed Awad agrees: "It's an amazing feeling when you can give so much pleasure to a people that are oppressed to this extent."

Despite all the anticipation of the new adventure, the club bosses know about the difficult task that awaits Dalkurd in the first division. Kiliz, whose father and club boss Ramazan anticipates optimistically, said: "Our club needs to evolve in all fields in order to survive. 40 to 50 million people will be watching us next season, which is our motivation."

Around 2000 Kurds live in Borlänge which has a population of 49 thousand. 96 percent of the studying Kurdish students recevie mother-tongue education. While Kurdish associations organize different cultural, artistic and social activities to ensure integration, the Kurdish population in the region has achieved a success in many areas including football.

Hi all,

first round of the Swedish top division in fotball- the ”Allsvenskan”- was played today. Dalkurd FF had a difficult first game away against one of the top teams of the league, AIK, and lost 2-0. But it was an honourable defeat, and now the debut match is over and done with. And it is a long season, over 30 games to go. So we hope better things are coming step by step.
