AC Mogadiscio
In 1952 the name of the team was changed in AS Mogadiscio ("Associazione Sport Mogadiscio"), while was third in the Championship of that year. The reason of the change was that the team was followed almost exclusively by Italian colonists and their descendants, so the management tried to get followers from the native Somalis erasing the Italian word "calcio" (that means 'football' in Italian).
