League Set-up

IFFC League Season

We have two teams competing in the IFFC League Division One (Premier) and League Division Two this year working on the success of last year’s results. The league generally kicks off the first week of September with some friendly or Cup matches in the weeks beforehand and runs until the end of May, with a Christmas / Winter break in December through March.

You can see our fixtures / results pages to see how we are fairing and to see our upcoming games, in both the league and cup matches.

Organisers

The International Friendship Football Club is a League in Beijing running since 1994 and follows loosely the IFFL format. First established by Foreign Students in Haidian District of Beijing it still has a lot of favour towards mixing Chinese, Asian and Western students together, but the upper divisions tend to have more ex-pat and working foreigners playing than in the early days.
