The International Socca Federation is the governing body of small-sided football. It brings national teams, clubs and millions of players into one global system.
ISF was founded in 2017 by leaders of small-sided football leagues across Europe and Asia.
They ran the game in their own countries and saw the same thing everywhere: huge numbers of people playing 5, 6, 7 and 8-a-side every week, with no international stage to play on. ISF was set up to build that stage. Today it operates international competitions for national teams and for clubs.
Football of the neighbourhood is back.
Socca is football as most people play it: authentic, faster, clean and shorter, with more action in every minute. Our job is to give that game a clear structure, so that a player who signs up for a local league has a real route to representing a country.
Seven World Cups on three continents since 2018, each played in a purpose-built arena in the middle of the host city.
