Sporting Afrique Football Club was a professional football club which played in Singapore's S.League in 2006. The team was made of players from an African descent. The squad consisted of young players from Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya and Ghana.[1] In allowing Sporting Afrique to join the league, the S.League hoped that their involvement would make the competition more exciting, and possibly unearth some good players who might be able to change their nationality to Singaporean and thus play for the Singapore national football team in the future.
