Refugees and asylum seekers who have sought sanctuary in Bradford represented their homelands in a football tournament.
Teams representing countries including Angola, Kurdistan and Malawi battled it out at the Goals soccer centre off Kings Road, Swain House, today.
Meanwhile, 160 children took part in a similar competition at Manningham Sports Centre in Carlisle Road.
The third annual tournament rounded off Refugee Week, organised by Bradford Refugee Forum to help foster understanding.
