The Andhra Pradesh Football Association (APFA), formerly the Andhra Football Association, is the state governing body of football in Andhra Pradesh. It is affiliated with the All India Football Federation, the national governing body.[1] The APFA sends state teams for Santosh Trophy and Senior Women's National Football Championship.
The sports federation was formed in 1959, following the merger of the Hyderabad Football Association with the Andhra Football Association under the auspices of the then AIFF vice-president Shiv Kumar Lal.[2][3]
