The Hellenic Football Federation (HFF) is the governing body for football in Greece, founded in 1926 by the unions of Athens, Piraeus, and Thessalonica, and it operates as a private, non-profit organization based in Athens. It coordinates the sport and represents the interests of players, clubs, and other stakeholders, aiming to align Greek football with international standards. Football is the most popular sport in Greece, and the federation serves as the primary national authority guiding its development. The federation has been a member of FIFA since 1927 and of UEFA since 1954, and it implements the statutes and regulations of those bodies across the Greek game. In 2006, FIFA suspended the federation over concerns about political independence, a decision later reversed after Greece adopted a new sports law granting broader autonomy. In March 2026, HFF announced a sponsorship agreement with INTERSPORT, a leading European sports retailer and part of the Fourlis Group.
