International affiliation [ edit ]
Old logo.
The Sahrawi Football Federation is not affiliated to the Confederation of African Football (CAF) nor to FIFA .[3] In December 2003 the Sahrawi Football Federation became provisionally affiliated to the N.F.-Board .[2] The N.F.-Board (officially known as the New Football Federations-Board) was formed in December 2003 and acted as a federation of association football national federations, who were not recognised by FIFA.[4] The board also organised the Viva World Cup ,[5] a competition Western Sahara entered once.[6] On 25 March 2012, the then Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic Minister for Youth and Sports, Mohamed Moulud Mohamed Fade, announced the creation of the Sahrawi national football team , by decision of the own team players, stating that, "The reason behind its absence of the African football competitions is due to its non-membership in the Confederation of African Football."[7]
The national team participated in the 2012 Viva World Cup . Due to pressure from Morocco , the hosts of the tournament, Kurdistan didn't display the Sahrawi flag for the competition.[1] The N.F. Board disbanded In January 2013 and it was replaced by the Confederation of Independent Football Associations (ConIFA).[9] Western Sahara joined ConIFA, but the national team hasn't participated in any of the ConIFA World Football Cups organised by the organisation.[10] In July 2020, Western Sahara were founding members of the World Unity Football Alliance .[11]
Sahrawi Football Federation membership was rejected by CAF in 2023.[12]
