Formed in 1888, the EFL is the world's original league football competition. We provide a national membership organisation for Clubs and also manage three main competitions - the Sky Bet EFL, the Carabao Cup and the Papa John’s Trophy - while administering reserve team and youth football for our member Clubs. We encourage all parts of the community to enjoy league football through community inclusion programmes and generate the commercial revenue that sustains and fuels football's growth.
