Club career

Adelaide United
In 2011, Kamara signed with A-League club Adelaide United. He made his professional debut in the 2011-12 A-League season on 16 December 2011, in a round 11 clash against Gold Coast United making him the youngest player to make a senior appearance in the competition at 15 years and 212 days old. He also made an additional 2 appearances in the Asian Champions League for Adelaide.

On 21 December 2011 it was announced he had signed a three-year senior contract with Adelaide United with the contract beginning on his 16th birthday.

However, in spite of a promising start to his career, Kamara was sidelined with what was later revealed to be hepatitis A over a two-year period. Having contracted the illness on a youth tour of China to play in the Weifang Cup, his illness became so severe that a liver transplant was considered by his physicians. He was eventually released from his contract by the club.

He was subsequently signed by Inglewood United to play in the NPL WA. He has continued to feature for various clubs in the National Premier Leagues in both Victoria and Western Australia.

Personal life
In 2002 at the age of 6 he moved to Australia with his mother and siblings to escape the civil war in his homeland. His stepfather was the goalkeeper coach of the Liberia national football team.
