About NCR FA

The NCR FA organizes and provides technical guidance to numerous football cups and tournaments held within the National Capital Region.

Besides creating and executing ideas of how to move football forward in NCR and the Philippines, events wise for the FA, the NCR FA also has to find sponsors to take care of its programs.

Provincial Football Associations (PFAs) like the NCR FA don't get any subsidy from PFF for any of the FA programs or staff maintaintenance. It's not easy looking for sponsors, as people in the Philippines prefer basketball and so do the sponsors. Still, NCR FA has had great success thanks to Adidas Philippines who helped last year with the first ever Futsal League which attracted 10 each teams for the 1st and 2nd divisions for men and 10 likewise for women, to Cebuana Lhuillier for the BOFA-Boys Football League for the youth last year, and to the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) for their continuing support and guidance.

The NCR FA now has as many as 40 referees, 2 FIFA Referees, 2 Assistant FIFA Referees, 1 Assistant FIFA Women's Referee and 1 FIFA Futsal Referee in the line up. Ateneo, UST, ASCOM, Nomads, Ultra and Rizal Memorial are the pitches here but not to a good playing standard. In terms of teams, there are a lot (both men and women) that are eager to join competitions; as an example for futsal, there might be a need to start a 3rd division to accommodate more teams, specially for the women's division which attracts more spectators. Today we just use basketball courts (wood) for futsal.
