The Foederatio Pedilusoria Aemilia was the Aemilian Football Federation and the nation's football governing body with several thousand football clubs as members. The football played in a league system, with the Prima Foederatio being the most honourful league. Only the clubs in the Prima Foederatio had players that had playing football as their primary profession, players in the Secundus Foederatio were often paid on days that they have matches and training sessions, but needed to hold another job to thrive in life. The best players were selected to play in the Aemilia national football team, their first official international match was against Whales in the 2024 CiboTap Championships qualification and was won 3-2.
