Friends Football Club (FFC) started in 2018 as a WhatsApp group of friends who share one passion: football. We are an informal, non-profit, voluntary friendship group, not a registered or licensed sports club. We meet to play football regularly across Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman, for health, fitness, wellbeing and friendship.
Every year we arrange friendly, non-commercial tournaments among our members and friends, and our members also take part in friendly community tournaments organised by others. Every friendly tournament we have arranged has been completed successfully.
We are proud of our discipline and the respect we show every member. As football fans, many of us also travel together to watch major football events.
Our dream is to grow, one day, into a formally registered football club with an academy for young talent, hosting bigger tournaments for football fans. We will only take that step after obtaining every licence and approval required by the UAE authorities. Until then we remain an informal, non-profit friendship group.
Everything we do is friendly, voluntary and non-commercial, played at grounds we book like any other group of friends.
Friendly games among members in Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman to stay fit and healthy.
Our annual internal tournaments and friendly masters (veterans) tournaments among friends.
Our members take part in friendly community tournaments organised by other groups.
Fun football for members' children, always with their parents present.
As fans, members travel together to watch major football events.
Football as a way to stay active. We also join community runs and fitness events.

Friendship that lasts, on and off the pitch.
Fair play, punctuality and good conduct, on and off the pitch.
Every member is valued and respected.
Football to stay active, fit and well.
We dream of opening a football academy for young players in the future. It does not exist yet: we do not currently offer coaching, training sessions or any paid services. An academy would only open after all required UAE licences and approvals are in place.
