The first football club of the Sultanate (documented as such) was the Maqboul Club, founded in 1942, known today as theOman Club. In the 1970s,Qaboos bin Said al Said favored the development of sports events and associations, which led in 1978 to the creation of the Omani Football Association with Sayyid /Haitham bin Tariq Al Said (Minister of National Heritage and Culture and in 2020, the successor to Qaboos as Sultan) as its first president. In its first year of operations, the Association became a member of theUnion of Arab Football Associations and ofFIFA, and joined theAsian Football Federation in 1980.[3]
In November 2017, the OFA was chosen to organize the FIFA Executive Football Summit scheduled for February 2018.[4]
