History[]

The practice of minifoot has developed a lot in recent years in Tunisia, under FTMF guidance. More generally, minifootball is taking its place in societies and the media. Since its beginnings in 2016, the Tunisian Federation of Minifoot (FTMF) has seen the big picture, by organizing the second edition of the world cup, in Nabeul 2017. Tunisia hosted an edition of 24 nations, with headliners such as France, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. This historic event, for a young federation, marked a turning point, and Tunisia was eliminated in the quarter-finals against Mexico.

At the local championship level, the first edition (2016) was contested with 12 teams. Since then, total number of clubs affiliated to FTMF has risen to more than 150, in four corners of Tunisia, with different levels. Latest upgrade was introduction of VAR, establishment of training sessions for minifootball coaches, and organization of the first ladies mini-football championship 2019-2020 season.^[1]
