Arman FC – Building Champions, Inspiring Community
Ali Kasemi
FounderArman FC was founded in 2020, beginning as a passionate initiative led by dedicated players in New Jersey and Jacksonville. What started as a small but determined group quickly evolved into a powerful organization grounded in commitment, teamwork, and ambition. Over time, Arman FC expanded its vision far beyond its original locations, fostering a strong presence among Afghan youth across all provinces of Afghanistan and becoming a unifying force for players at home and abroad.
The name Arman is a masculine Persian name meaning wish, hope, desire, and dream. In Armenian, Turkish, German, and Russian traditions, it carries additional meanings such as God’s man, purpose, man in the army, and warrior. These layered meanings embody our identity and mission. Our club strives to honor this name by pursuing excellence on the field and working relentlessly toward our goals—God willing.
Today, Arman FC stands as a symbol of unity, harmony, and friendship, proudly representing youth from every corner of Afghanistan. Supported by AWCC, we are honored to bring together players from diverse backgrounds, provinces, and communities, all connected through a shared love for the world’s game. Unity on the field, pride in our hearts—together for Afghanistan’s love of football.
Every member of Arman FC contributes unique skills, discipline, and dedication, forming the foundation of our rapid development and competitive success. Our achievements reflect the strength of a collective vision that spans continents—rooted in our beginnings abroad, yet deeply committed to uplifting the football spirit within Afghanistan.
Arman FC has competed in Umoja, one of the largest soccer tournaments in North America, securing four consecutive championships (2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024). We proudly anticipate continuing this momentum at the Umoja 12 tournament, which will take place from December 21–23, 2025, in Panama City Beach, Florida.
Additionally, we claimed the 2023 FL Bosnian Cup Championship in our first year of participation, further establishing our reputation as a club built on excellence and determination.
When faith and sport connect, something powerful happens. This is what representing looks like.
