Football Federation of Armenia, association football governing body in Armenia
The Football Federation of Armenia is the national body that governs football across the country. It runs the national leagues and competitions at every level and coordinates the national teams.
The federation was founded in 1992, shortly after Armenia became an independent state. Before that, Armenian clubs competed within the Soviet system, and Ararat Yerevan stood out in the 1970s by winning national championship titles.
Football holds an important place in Armenian daily life and community gatherings. Fans gather in stadiums and cafes to watch matches and cheer for their teams with passion and energy.
The federation's official website is the best starting point for finding match schedules, results, and news about the national teams. Ticket information for home games is also available there.
Since the 1990s, the federation has invested in building training pitches in towns and villages across the country to make the sport more accessible to young players. This network of small fields has helped football grow well beyond the capital.
