EAFF Celebrates 10 Years of Amputee Football in Europe
In 2025, the European Amputee Football Federation (EAFF) proudly celebrates its 10th anniversary – a milestone marked by pride, gratitude, and a strong vision for the future.
Since its foundation in 2015, EAFF has become the driving force behind amputee football in Europe. What began as a bold vision has grown into a thriving network of over 20 national teams, thousands of players, dedicated volunteers, and a passionate community united by the power of sport.
Over the past decade, we have celebrated numerous achievements together:
- Hosted three unforgettable European Championships (Istanbul 2017, Kraków 2021, Evian 2024)
- Built a solid partnership with UEFA, raising visibility and credibility for the sport
- Successfully launched the EAFF Champions League, giving top club teams across Europe a platform to compete at the highest level
- Introduced the EAFF Nations League, strengthening international competition and fostering unity among European national teams
- Supported the growth of women’s amputee football, with more female players and dedicated events than ever before
- Invested in the future through youth development programs, camps, and talent pathways
- Developed a broad network of trained coaches, referees, and medical professionals, committed to the progress of the sport
- Above all, created a community built on resilience, respect, and inclusion
For national teams, EAFF has provided not only international competition, but also visibility, structure, and a shared platform for countries to develop and elevate their amputee football programs. From grassroots initiatives to major tournaments, nations across Europe now stand stronger and more united than ever.
For clubs, the establishment of continental competitions like the Champions League has opened the door to a new era of professionalism and ambition. Local clubs are now part of an international stage where players showcase their talent, represent their cities, and connect with the broader amputee football family.
This 10-year anniversary is not only a celebration of what we’ve achieved – it is a tribute to the people who made it possible. To the players, coaches, volunteers, partners, and fans: thank you for your passion and belief.
We are proud of the journey so far – and even more excited for what’s to come. The next chapter of amputee football in Europe starts now.
