The Bermuda national football team is governed by the Bermuda Football Association (BFA), which was founded in 1928. Football was introduced to the island by the British in the early 1900s, and the BFA went on to affiliate with FIFA and CONCACAF in 1962, formally establishing Bermuda's place in international football.
The team competes within the CONCACAF region and is a member of the Caribbean Football Union. Though not among the strongest sides in the confederation, Bermuda has produced several notable players who went on to careers at professional clubs abroad, including Shaun Goater, Clyde Best, and Nahki Wells.
A historic moment came in 1967 when Bermuda finished as runners-up at the Pan-American Games football tournament, losing to Mexico in the final — a result that remains one of the team's most celebrated achievements. In more recent years, the side reached a significant milestone by qualifying for the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup, marking their first-ever appearance in that tournament.
Domestically, the top tier of Bermudian football is the Bermudian Premier Division, established in 1963. The winner of that league earns entry into the preliminary stage of the CONCACAF Caribbean Club Shield. Bermuda's football identity is shaped by its small-island character and the influence of British sporting traditions, and the national team continues to represent one of the more recognisable non-sovereign footballing nations within CONCACAF.
