The Confederation of European New Federations (CENF) is a football organization that is the confederation of the NF-Board in Europe, and in that respect will represent unrecognised football nations in that continent. The CENF is currently in the final stages of discussing this with the NF-Board.
The CENF was the second confederation of the NF-Board. The Consejo Sudamericano de Nuevas Federaciones (CSANF) was the first. There are currently twelve individual members working for the CENF.[1]
The NF-Board will help the CENF with coming to an agreement with the European NF-Board member associations on this subject.
The goal of the CENF is to federate European non-FIFA Football Associations and to organize matches between these Football Associations.
The CENF started publishing two monthly newsletters in May 2008, CENF News and Alternative Football News.[2]
Also in May 2008, they launched a public forum for those who are interested in Unrecognised Football Nations, but also football in general, at: cenf.yuku.com.[3]
