Fujais Idrottsforbund (FIF)
Fujais Idrottsforbund is the federation of labor unions representing all sports players and workers in sports-associated industries. It is separate from the Fujansk government, but receives accreditation and financial and infrastructural support from it. Its structure includes clubs at the local level (e.g. a local sports club), which are constituents of fylke organizations, which are a part of the larger federation representing specific sports (e.g. Fujais Fotbollforbund for football), which are then members of FIF. FIF is a member of the Rhodoniad and OCTWPUS (Olympic Council of The West Pacific Union of Sports), and is Fujai's representative to the Olympic Council.

Interesting tidbits:

• Hafstrand 07, one of the best supported clubs in the country, had a dreadful year, falling from 10th to 12th on the last matchday. You can bet they'll be out for blood in Annarserien next year.
• The four largest clubs continued their dominance, with Bruland, Trondsnes, Almoren, and Solbakken all finishing in the top five.
• AS Savigny-Bilten, off its merger of AS Savigny and Bilten FC a few years ago, charted one of its highest finishes yet. Both teams were founded in the early 1300s by Reçuecian immigrants.

Interesting tidbits:

• Lindskrona and Ossen, relegated from Fyrstserien just last year topped the series to return to the top flight.
• Keiserholde Tretønnar, the nation's winningest club in its heyday fifty years ago (and retains the dislike of much of the country to this day), was once again kept from reentering Fyrstserien.

Final

Rønnhavn IL 2–2 Vaden FF (2–2 AET) (5–4 pen.)

Interesting tidbits:

• Everyone in the nation became Vaden fans over the course of the cup. In the first round, they defeated Keiserholde Tretønnar. In the second they stunned the country by defeating a big four team in one of the highest scoring matches we've seen in a while, going all the way to penalty kicks. In the next round, they played against similarly ranked Nore, soundly beating them and moving to the Kamp. They faced two top flight teams, one of which a big four, and made it to the final. That, however, was where their cinderella story ended, as they lost to Rønnhavn by one penalty kick.
• Solbakken, one of the big four and last year's cup champions, were removed in the first round in a no holds barred match with local Keiserholde rivals and fellow big four team, Bruland, who were removed in the Kamp by the Annarserien side Vaden.

Fyrstserien is at the top of Fujai's football league pyramid. It is mostly made up of clubs from large and mid-sized cities, though there are usually one or two from smaller towns. While the big four clubs of Almoren, Bruland, Solbakken, and Trondsnes are the winningest teams in the country, there is more skill parity among Fujansk clubs than there is in the average league. The 11th and 12th place clubs in Fyrstserien are relegated to Annarserien, and the 10th place club plays a three game promotion/relegation playoff against the 3rd place club from Annarserien.

Interesting tidbits:

• Solbakken, one of the big four, has once again returned to the top of Fyrstserien.
• Last year's champions, Bruland IF of Strafsund had a real rough time of it this year with a 10-3-9 record and 7th place finish—one of the worst for the club many southerners view as the country's best.
• All three sides from the sparsely populated, but vast region of Hasmark performed badly this season. Havnarbetars and Rønnhavn barely escaped relegation, even as Lakseåker finished last.

The 11th and 12th place clubs are relegated to Tredjeserien 1 and 2 respectively, and the 10th place club plays in a promotion/relegation derby against the 2nd place teams from Tredjeserien 1 and 2.

Interesting tidbits:

• After a year's time out in Annarserien, Jarnfoss has returned to Fyrstserien.
• Vaden, everyone's favorite Cinderella team from last year's Mestarskap, had a rough time of this year, being automatically relegated from Tredjeserien. Many look forward to a swift return, as they drew many new supporters from within and without their fylke in last year's Mestarskap.

Fujaismestarskap is the national football cup of Fujai. All clubs in Fyrstserien and Annarserien are entered automatically, though there are rumors that the Mestarskap will be expanded to include Tredjeserien teams, who currently play in their own cup. Semi-professional and amateur clubs each have their own football cups. Mestarskap matches take place throughout the regular season, culminating about 2/3 through. Pairings are drawn randomly after each round, and all matches take place on neutral ground.

Fyrstserien is at the top of Fujai's football league pyramid. It is mostly made up of clubs from large and mid-sized cities, though there are usually one or two from smaller towns. While the big four clubs of Bruland, Havnarbetars, Solbakken, and Trondsnes are the winningest teams in the country, there is more skill parity among Fujansk clubs than there is in the average league. The 11th and 12th place clubs in Fyrstserien are relegated to Annarserien, and the 10th place club plays a three game promotion/relegation playoff against the 3rd place club from Annarserien.

Interesting tidbits:

• After two straight years as runner up, Trondsnes has finally taken the championship!
• After winning Fyrstserien two years ago and a terrible 7th place finish last year, Bruland followed up with the worst finish any of the big four have posted in the last twenty years—10th place and fighting relegation.
• After finally clawing their way back to Fyrstserien, the most hated club in the country, Keiserholde Tretønnar have been relegated once more, to everyone's delight.

Annarserien forms the second rung of the Fujansk football league pyramid. It is mostly made up of clubs from mid-sized and smaller cities, and enjoys a wide following throughout the country. The top two clubs are promoted to Fyrstserien, while the third place club plays in a three game promotion/relegation playoff against the 10th place team from Fyrstserien. The 11th and 12th place clubs are relegated to Tredjeserien 1 and 2 respectively, and the 10th place club plays in a promotion/relegation derby against the 2nd place teams from Tredjeserien 1 and 2.

  • In a surprise upset, FF Skan from Fosborg in the Nordfjordar has won the championship and promotion!
  • New upstarts FK Vemdemning from Vemdemning in Vemselag, just promoted from Tredjeserien B made a suprise mid-table finish, breaking the relegation curse some teams from Tredjeserien have faced.
  • After being automatically relegated last year and their Cinderella run through the Mestarskap the year before, it seems like Vaden FF's magic has run out.

  Fujaismestarskap is the national football cup of Fujai. All clubs in Fyrstserien and Annarserien are entered automatically, though there are rumors that the Mestarskap will be expanded to include Tredjeserien teams, who currently play in their own cup. Semi-professional and amateur clubs each have their own football cups. Mestarskap matches take place throughout the regular season, culminating about 2/3 through. Pairings are drawn randomly after each round, and all matches take place on neutral ground.
