The Sint Maarten Football Federation is the governing body of
Sint Maarten Senior League.[3]
The FF mostly fell inactive around 2010, with football being described as a "mess" and returned in 2015, with national and international football coming back.[4] Hurricane Irma devastated the island in 2017 and football was limited for a time,[5] but managed to unsuccessfully apply to FIFA in 2022. An appeal was made to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and the result is undecided by August 2022.[6]
