Federation Internationale de Football Association
 PROFILE
According to Scottish soccer legend Bill Shankly, "Football is not a matter of life or death, it's much more important than that." The Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) taps into that passion. FIFA is the world's governing body for soccer, the world's most popular sport played by more than 200 million people. Not-for-profit FIFA, with more than 200 member nations, regulates the rules of play; sets standards for refereeing, sports medicine, and discipline; and oversees international transfers of players. It also organizes international competitions, including one of the world's largest sporting events, the World Cup, held every four years to determine the world's best soccer team.
