Governing body for America’s favorite sport 🏈 Home of the @usnft 🇺🇸 Football's Governing Body. We lead, strengthen & grow football. USA Football, the sport’s national governing body, leads the game’s development, inspires participation, and ensures a positive experience for all youth, high school, and other amateur players.  We accomplish this by (1) creating and disseminating high-quality educational products and resources for youth football coaches, officials, league commissioners, players, and parents; (2) encouraging adoption of unified rules, playing standards and best practices by youth football programs; and (3) fielding national teams for international competitions to showcase the values of amateur football.
