| book description |

The outbreak of the Second World War mobilized all the Hellenism of Sudan. Apart from those who fought on the North African front, the Greeks of Sudan initiated a fundraiser and sent clothing and money to the Greek Red Cross in Alexandria in order to be transferred to Greece. Financial assistance was also given to the British Red Cross and the RAF. Furthermore, the Greeks of Sudan joined the Sudan Auxiliary Defence Force which was formed by the British in order to protect the eastern borders of the Sudan that were threatened by the Italian forces that had occupied Ethiopia and were constantly trying to invade Sudan. In 1921, a football championship was launched in Khartoum with the participation of teams formed by members of the British administration and people of different nationalities. The “Hellenic Athletic Club” was one of those teams. Matches were usually held at Gordon College and there were two annual cups. In 1931, the Greek team played a total of 20 football matches with 14 wins, 3 defeats and 3 draws.
