The Non-Official Football Association or NFA is a mystic organisation located somewhere in the non-Hattrick world, maybe on a secret island (many say it's Sealand).

The organization was created as a joyfull league of territoties claiming their own spot in the game and HFA recognition.

It all changed in 2011 after Cuba and Qatar obtained their official leagues. Then NFA gradually transformed in a secret group operating in the shadows against HFA.

Non-Recognized Members

Non-Recognized members of the NFA are all countries included in these two typologies:

  • territories part of larger countries whose inhabitants have a strong historically constituted identity with ethnic or cultural unity;
  • full recognized country non associated with HFA that does not participate in international tournaments.

Our policy on leagues and league names 09/06/2009
From time to time we get questions about our policy for new league additions, and also for country names, and while this may not be the most interesting news it's good to spell it out and make it clear.

New league additions in Hattrick have to be FIFA members. We also base our naming policy on FIFA. We have used this policy for many years now, as it makes perfect sense for us to do so. Hattrick is a global online football game, and FIFA is the international governing body of association football. So in case of any dispute, we choose the same name that FIFA uses. This way, we don't take side in any real life conflict.

In our league dropdowns we will start using the English name now. This will make it much easier for everyone to understand and use the dropdown. It will also make us more compliant with our FIFA policy and avoid real life conflicts carrying over to the Hattrick world.
