The Oltalom Sports Association was founded in 2005 by the employees and veteran sportsmen of Oltalom Charity Society and John Wesley Theological College. Their goal was to provide the opportunity to do sports to the socially disadvantaged and homeless people.

The Hungarian Homeless Soccer Team, the soccer team of the Sports Association, is the only national team selected to appear at the world championship. 2007 was the second time for them to take part in the yearly organized Homeless World Cup. In 2006, they succesfully competed at the Homeless World Cup in Cape Town, South-Africa, and this year in Copenhagen, Denmark. This significantly enhanced the reputation of the team. Now, it has more than fifty persistent and talented players. They take part in every practice and match.

The founding Oltalom Charity Society and the Oltalom Sports Association is still seeking supporters and donors who wish to contribute to the soccer team's succesful performance at the next year's Homeless World Cup.

In case you decide to support the Hungarian Homeless Soccer Team through the Oltalom Charity Society - which is a priority public benefit organisation, you will be able to write of 150% of your tax base.
