The Football Federation of Macedonia (FFM; Macedonian: Фудбалска Федерација на Македонија, ФФМ) or Football Federation of North Macedonia[2][3] is the governing body of football in North Macedonia based in Skopje.[4][5][6]

History

FFM was officially formed after the establishment of then SR Macedonia as part of SFR Yugoslavia, following World War II on 14 August 1949 in Skopje (after the end of World War II, the first football department was established as a part of the sport association of the city of Skopje, the football section was separated on 16 August 1948). From 1949 to 2002, it was called the Football Association of Macedonia (Macedonian: Фудбалски Сојуз на Македонија / Fudbalski Sojuz na Makedonija or ФСМ/FSM). The first ever president was Ljubisav Ivanov - Dzingo.[7] Andon Dončevski was appointed by FFM as the first ever coach of the North Macedonia national team.
