In that same year, the SFF became a FIFA member and has been affiliated with the organisation ever since. In 1975 it joined the Confederation of African Football and has been a member ever since as well. SFF is responsible for organizing matches between local teams and enforcing rules and regulations of the game during matches.The organisation has been functioning ever since its establishment although Somalia has not had a government for over a decade now.
