Community Built
On The Field

Founded in 2016, Habesha United Soccer Club was born from a simple belief: that sport can unite generations, preserve culture, and build a stronger community. We are Calgary's home for the Habesha diaspora — a place where kids grow up proud of who they are.

Our programs go beyond the pitch. We combine competitive soccer training with Amharic language, arts, music, and cultural activities — giving every child a holistic foundation for life.
