We are pleased to share this year’s FA Council annual report for the 2024-25 season.
Our Council’s role is to 'futureproof the game for all' and as such, it provides a vital component of our governance structure. This report reflects our commitment to transparently share the Council’s work with anyone who has an interest in the outcomes.
Our 120 members represent a carefully curated mix from County Associations and leagues and clubs from the men’s and women’s professional and semi-professional game.
They also represent education, disability and youth football, match officials and a range of stakeholders from across the ecosystem, including the Football Supporters’ Association (FSA), the League Managers’ Association (LMA) and the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA).
Council is structured to reflect the priorities of the entire game. Through its diverse representation, it ensures a ‘voice for all’ in football, addressing the needs, concerns and priorities of every stakeholder across the game, providing strategic input to the issues that impact the sustainability of English football.
The 2024-25 report highlights progress on multiple strategic initiatives and also includes summary reports from FA Committees. These reports illustrate the breadth and depth of activities that support our game.
So many Council members voluntarily contribute their time to these committees, and for that, we are extremely grateful.
In full transparency, this 2024-25 FA Council Annual Report has now been published here.
