Founded in 2021, KEFF was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to unite Keralites across Europe through their shared passion for football. What began as a single tournament
in Rome, Italy, has since evolved into a dynamic movement—bringing together players, teams, and fans from all corners of the continent.
KEFF proudly brings together 25 teams from across Europe, making us one of the most recognized Malayali football federation on the continent.

By organizing women’s leagues, friendly matches, and training programs, we aim to inspire more women to take up the sport, break barriers, and lead the way in building a stronger, more diverse football culture within our community.
The Annual KEFF Champions League is our flagship tournament and the highlight of the KEFF calendar. Launched to bring together the best Malayali football clubs from across Europe, this prestigious event is more than just a competition — it’s a celebration of unity, culture, and sporting excellence. Hosted each year in a major European city, the league provides players with a professional platform to showcase their talent, while giving fans an unforgettable experience filled with passion, pride, and community spirit.
At KEFF, we believe the future of Malayali football in Europe lies in nurturing young talent. Our Youth Development Programs focus on creating opportunities for aspiring players under 18 and under 21 to grow their skills, gain competitive experience, and build confidence on and off the field. Through age-group tournaments, mentorship from experienced coaches, and structured training sessions, we aim to develop not just skilled footballers but also disciplined individuals who embody the true spirit of sportsmanship.
No matter where you are in Europe, if you’re a Malayali passionate about football and culture, KEFF is your home.
