The "World Minifootball Federation" (WMF), is the highest authority of minifootball (5, 6, 7 and 8 a side) in the world. WMF exists to promote, supervise and direct minifootball in the world, as a means to contribute to the positive development of society. Its members are national minifootball associations and continental minifootball federations from each continent.
Minifootball leagues and other competitions and events are organizing by the WMF or by its continental, national or local affiliates. The best teams from local leagues will advance to national championship. The best players are chosen for national team which participate in continental or world minifootball championships.
