Siège FFF

Elections to the FFF will take place on March 13, 2021. Amateur football elections will be held from September to January 31, 2021.

In response to the scheduling difficulties posed by the coronavirus epidemic, the FFF Executive Committee met last Friday to deicde to postpone the district, league and FFF elections, originally scheduled for June to December 2020.

The elections for the FFF and the Haute Autorité du Football, which were originally scheduled for December 12, in Paris, have thus been postponed to March 13, 2021. For the 91 districts, initially scheduled to take place from June 2020, have been postponed until the start of the new school year. Elections within the leagues will take place, within the deadline of January 31, 2021 (see box).

Postponing the FFF and amateur football electoral calendar will ensure the smooth running of the elections, both legally and democratically, from the filing of the lists and the electoral campaigns to the voting.

In view of the current health crisis, the FFF Executive Committee has also decided to cancel the Federal Assembly on June 6. The Federal Assembly of December 12, 2020 is being maintained in order to rule on the FFF's sporting, regulatory and financial matters.
