The Asociación Deportiva de Fútbol Profesional (English: Professional Football Sports Association), commonly known as the ADFP, is a Peruvian football governing body that organizes the Primera División. The association is made up of 9 current clubs.

The first governing body to congregate football clubs in Peru was the Liga Peruana de Football (Peruvian Football League) which was founded on 12 May 1912, commonly known as the LPFB.[2] The league organized its first season in 1912 with 16 clubs from Lima and Callao divided into two divisions but was discontinued after the end of the 1921 season.

The first division was subsequently organized by the Peruvian Football Federation in 1926 which was founded in 1922 and became a member of CONMEBOL in 1925. Starting in 1941, the organization of the Primera División was passed from the Peruvian Football Federation to the newly formed Asociación No Amateur (Non-Amateur Association). This organization was replaced by the Asociación Central de Fútbol (Central Football Association) in 1951 when the Primera División became a professional league. Finally, in 1962, the ADFP succeeded the Asociación Central de Fútbol as the organizing body of the first division.
