Dear Members,
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING – Genoa (Italy)
CONIFA are really proud to welcome you to Genoa, Italy – a spectacular city – for the 12th Annual General Meeting of CONIFA. Exciting and gamechanging times are here, with a calendar filled with events and activities 2025-2026. Therefore, your attendance is very important, so the correct path is taken.
Except the traditional AGM schedule, we together – as an example – present details about both Continental tournaments, such as EURO2026 and future events to come followed by the official draw ceremonies for the Asia Cup 2025 , press conference, interviews, site visits and perhaps most important – enjoy each others company.
We´ve taken many leaps forward in over 11 years now, but we are still far from being saturated and cannot wait for the many adventures to come. Engaging yourself in CONIFA now is making big prints in the history books. Together we´re creating a fantastic global movement and your contribution is important and highly appreciated.
We will evaluate and approve the actions taken and even more important, decide the future steps and strategies – both for CONIFA as an organization and for every one of you! We´ve become a powerhouse in football and represents more then 970 million people.
