Football is an important sport in the People's Republic of Graecia; even if the nation has been yet known in the inter-Micras sport scene, the Graecian state has invested heavily on Football. In the daily life of the Graecians, football provides, for the common people, a good daily excercise, to forget their tough daily problems.
History
Football appeared in Graecia when it's claim was finally accepted. One of the first actions of the new state was to construct sporting facilities in the main cities of the nation, so as sporting teams could develop. The First ever football tournament in Graecia, the first State Football Tournament of Graecia (see below), was completed in 1687 AN and determined the composition of the National Team. The National team has not participated in any international games or competitions yet.
Regulatory organisations
There is not yet a special organization that manages the Graecian football scene; it is administered directly by the state. It is believed that, once a special organisation is formed about football, much problems will find a solution.
Problems
Graecia is still a very poor, totalitarian state; The Graecian government already spent a large portion of it's minuscule budget on building the arenas that the teams would play, so it has cut temporarily any more investment in football. As such, the regional teams, when playing outside of Graecia, do wear the potential kits of the Graecian national team; even worse, when they play inside Graecia, because the government cannot finance the creation of special kits for them, they often use home-made clothes to play, which are of varying quality and design. Some also claim that the stadiums outside Salonigrad (the capital city) have serious problems with their terrain.
Teams
Currently, there are 4 regional teams active in graecia, all state-founded:
- Salonigrad State Football Academy
- Ersoy State Football Academy
- Cliffton State Football Academy
- Erythropolis State Football academy.
Current events
For now, there exists one cup, the State Football Tournament of Graecia, which has the 4 above teams competing to add their players to the Graecian National Football team. The first instance of this tournament was completed in 1687 AN, and, it was the foundation act of the National Team. The first time the National team would play is on the 2020-2021 EMUFA cup.
