The Northern Region Football (NRF) is an association football organisation, responsible for local growth and development of the game from Northland to South Auckland, New Zealand.

Previously the Northern Football Federation ran football from Northland down to the North Shore and West Auckland, while the Auckland Football Federation covered the rest of the Auckland region.

In 2019, a joint meeting was held to consider a joint operating model in 2020.[1] Northern Region Football was formed in 2020[2][3] and Laura Menzies was appointed as the new organisation's first Chief Executive Officer.[4]
