JOIN FSE

FSE is the democratic voice of European football fans.

Our members are the bedrock of our organisation: Through working groups, European Football Fans Congresses (EFFC), and Biennial General Meetings (BGM), they decide our policies, set our priorities, determine our campaigns, and elect our Board.

With members in over 50 UEFA nations, we aim to be as representative as possible. To be sure, there are three categories of FSE membership, and they are all free:

  1. Individual: Anyone over the age of 14 years of age can join FSE so long as they recognise our Constitution and support our core principles. Individual members get one vote each at the FSE BGM.
  2. Local fans’ groups: Club fans’ groups or local fan initiatives can join FSE, too. They get 3 votes each at the FSE BGM and should be represented by an appointed delegate.
  3. National fans’ organisations: National fans’ organisations, fans’ embassies, and continental fans’ groups are an important part of FSE’s membership. They get 10 votes each at the FSE BGM and, likewise, should be represented by an appointed delegate.

Please note: as per the FSE constitution, membership applications need to be received by the FSE Office at least 60 days before a BGM in order to assign full membership rights for that meeting. The next FSE BGM is scheduled to take play on Saturday, 24th June 2023.
