World Football Organization - your source for association football information

Description

The World Football Organization (WFO) was officially formed in the summer of 2002. Its history does date much further back, though. Its predecessor is the World Football Organization (WFO), which was founded in 1999 by Boye Bjerkholt (Norway), Flemming Vorbeck (Denmark), Jóhannes Birgir Jensson (Iceland) and Michael Raney (USA).

The WFO was formed to join together the projects that all four had worked on. Jóhannes and Michael began in 1995 with Teams of the World (TOTW), a directory of football clubs around the world that had information on 1000 clubs in 1999. The TOTW is now part of the World Football Database (WFD). Boye began in 1997 with his Football Club Sites on the Net (FCSN), a massive collection of football links which he still maintains, under the name Football on the Net (FN). Flemming began in 1998 with High Quality Football Logos (HQFL), a site that provides detailed versions of club and federation logos; the site is still in full operation and grows constantly.

Combining links and logos with club information from countries around the world, the WFD became a new resource in the rapidly expanding football world.
