The Catalonia Football Federation, known as the Federació Catalana de Futbol in Catalan, is responsible for administering football in Catalonia. It was formed on November 11 1900 as the Football Associació de Catalunya. It was the first football association founded in Spain. The first president was Eduard Alesson and the original members included FC Barcelona, Català SC, Hispania AC and "Sociedad Española de Football", now known as the RCD Espanyol.

Between 1903 and 1940 the federation organised the Campionat de Catalunya, the first league championship ever played in Spain. Since 1904 the federation has also organised the Catalonia national football team. Today the federation continues to organise it own club competition, the Copa Catalunya. It also administers Tercera División-Group 5 and the Primera Catalana as part of the Spanish football league system.
