The Tristan da Cunha Football Association is the governing body of football on Tristan da Cunha, a part of the British Overseas Territory of St. Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. The association is neither a member of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) nor FIFA. For this reason, participation in international tournaments of the two associations is excluded.[1][2] Football on St. Helena and Ascension is organized independently.[3]
The association organises the matches of Tristan da Cunha FC, as well as the island's 5-a-side tournament, the Table Bay Marine Cup, which is contested between the island's two 5-a-side teams, the Tristan da Cunha Tigers and the Sharks.[2] Additionally, the association governs football played at the island's annual Queen's Day celebrations.
