Who we are
NSFA is a Schools' Football Association run by volunteer school teachers.
We organise ALL schools football (soccer) competitions in the Newcastle upon Tyne section of Northumberland, England.
Our members ... By affiliation to our association, schools are affiliated to the ESFA (English Schools' Football Association), who, in turn, are an affiliate member of the FA (Football Association) in the United Kingdom.
​
Our partners ... We are also affiliated to the NCSFA (Northumberland County Schools' Football Association) which organises regional Inter-Association competitions involving boys and girls.
​
How we started ... We began our activities over 125 seasons ago when a group of school teachers came together in 1894 to form the association.
