From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Independent Schools Football Association (ISFA) oversees boys' football among independent schools in the United Kingdom. The ISFA is affiliated to the Football Association.
Its chairman is David Elleray, and its CEO is Mark Dickson.
[edit] History
Dick Sale, headmaster of Brentwood School and public school representative on the F.A. Council, formed the Public Schools Football Association and was its first chairman. The name was changed to the Independent Schools FA in 1986 under the chairmanship of Chris Saunders, headmaster of Eastbourne College and later Lancing College. In 2005, the ISFA Girls section was formed. The current chairman is the third person to hold that post.
