DFA-IFLeague

About DFA-IF League

The Diplomatic Football Association International Football League (DFA-IFLeague) has been in existence for almost 15 years and was started by several diplomatic missions in London. Countries that have been represented include Algeria, Australia, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, England (Home Office), Finland, Germany, Holland, Jamaica, Lithuania, Mexico, Morocco, South Africa, Russia and the USA.

Teams have joined and due to not being able to compete for a whole season, have left, but we have always had at least 8 countries represented within the League. Whilst the league has been successful in fostering diplomatic relations, it has also provided the local communities with a focus and, over time, the communities have supplied players who wish to represent their home nations.

For the 2008-2009 DFA-IFLeague season the following eight teams will take part: Lusitânia Brazil, Ecuador, France, Ireland, Japan, Panama, Poland and Spain. In addition to the league format, there are also the Diplomatic Cup and Diplomatic Plate competitions that provide all teams with a chance of silverware. There is also the End of Year Tournament to reward the League's top 6 teams.

All of the work from the Executive Committee is voluntary and any expenses incurred administering the league is borne by the individual. This league is a labour of love for the Committee members, not a career.
