Perlis Football Association (PFA) (Malay: Persatuan Bola Sepak Perlis) is the governing body of football for the state of Perlis, Malaysia. PFA is responsible for coordinating and developing regional football with the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) as the official governing body of football in Malaysia.[1][2]

History

[edit | edit source]

Founded in 1963, the team had a long-standing rivalry with Kedah FA, collectively known as the "Northern derby". Perlis FA home is the 20,000-seat Tuanku Syed Putra Stadium, built in 1995 to replace the Dato' Sheikh Ahmad Stadium. Perlis had their first major success in the 2004 season, when they won the Malaysia Cup. They went on to win the Malaysia Super League, in 2005, and another Malaysia Cup in 2006. They played three finals of the Malaysia FA Cup (2003, 2006, 2007). The team had also won the Malaysian Charity Shield/Piala Sumbangsih twice (2007, 2008). As for continental tournaments, 2006 was their debut playing in the AFC Cup. They did qualify for the 2010 edition of the AFC Cup, but withdrew from the competition.

Suspension

[edit | edit source]

The team served a two-year FIFA suspension for failing to settle salary arrears of players and coaches in 2019. With some Perlis-based clubs continued participation in the domestic competitions, it could be interpreted as a suspension on PFA as a team.[3]

FAM has also made the suspension announcement due to the PFA's failure to settle the outstanding wages to their former football director Matt Holland.[4][5] The FAM decision about mandatory privatization of the state teams in 2021 contributed to Perlis FA not continuing their senior activities.[6][7][8]
