The Tristan da Cunha Football Association is the football umbrella organization on Tristan da Cunha , an area equal to the British overseas territory of St. Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha . The association is neither a member of the African football association CAF nor of FIFA . For this reason, participation in international tournaments of the two associations is excluded.

The association is more of a symbolic character, as Tristan da Cunha FC has only been a football club on the island since 2002 , which also forms the national football team .

The football on St. Helena and Ascension is self-organized.
