After living the first 32 years of his life on the island of Zanzibar in Tanzania, Eddie Mohammed married a Tasmanian lady and made the decision to leave his old life behind and start anew on the vastly different island of Tasmania. Settling in was hard, with the challenges including the weather, finding employment ,adjusting to unfamiliar social customs and no African population to speak of all facing him. A chance meeting led Eddie to joining a local soccer club and sport proved to be his pathway to feeling more at home - he got work and a social network. Eddie now coaches youth soccer and has coached and mentored young African migrants, and his influence has often extended beyond the soccer pitch.
