The Futbol Astograthiko Federazioa (English: Astograthian Football Federation), often abbreviated as FAF, is the governing body of association football in Astograth. It has been headquartered in the city of Rumiatzi, capital of Astograth, since its founding in the 632nd year of the Astograthian calendar. The FAF is a mixed public institution, partially controlled by the Astograthian Ministry of Sport and by its federated clubs.

It administers and organises the Astograthian league system, including the three tiers of the fully professional Astograthian Football League, which consists of the First Division, Second Division and Second Division B in descending order. The FAF additionally organises the Royal Cup, the national cup competition.

The FAF is responsible for the management of the Astograthian national football team, including its various youth divisions and a dedicated women's team. As of 685, the federation counts over 27,000 directly and indirectly registered clubs and 2,100,000 federated football players.
