The Northern Mariana Islands Football Association (NMIFA), is the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Island’s formally recognized football organization with over 750 members participating in scheduled leagues, games and other competitions on the island of Saipan.  Our mission is to develop and improve the sport of football through increased opportunities for all people, especially on youth, to play and participate in the most popular sporting activity around the world.  The NMIFA, only two and one-half years old, has grown incredibly in this short period of time by not only increasing the number of players participating in NMIFA activities, but also by playing in international competitions and developing the sport of football throughout Saipan’s public and private school systems.

The Northern Mariana Islands Football Association believes that all players should receive equal opportunities and benefits within their level of play. All players have the right to participate in competitions where they can be honored as winners.

At the Northern Mariana Islands Football Association we provide a fun, safe and healthy game for ALL KIDS... big kids, little kids, tall kids, short kids, young kids, older kids...kids who want to play for one season, kids who want to play for twenty seasons, kids who play strictly for fun, and kids who want to compete at the highest level possible. Kids are different, and because they are different their physical, social and psychological needs are different. We at The Northern Mariana Islands Football Association recognize this and our programs are aimed at meeting the different needs of all kids.

 The Northern Mariana Islands Football Association provides a healthy activity through its recreational and small sided games programs. These programs emphasize FUN, and de-emphasize winning at all costs. Every child is guaranteed playing time and the game is taught in a fun and enjoyable atmosphere.

The Northern Mariana Islands Football Association is non-profit and educational organization whose mission is to foster the physical, mental and emotional growth and development of America's youth through the sport of soccer at all levels of age and competition. Our job is also to make it fun, and instill in young players a lifelong passion for the sport.
