Due to the fact that the organization has problems with sponsors and patrons, there was not always enough material for regular tournaments. Nevertheless, five times during 2008–2012, she held a tournament for the VIVA World Cup .
NF-Board broke up in 2013 as a result of internal problems. [3]
The actual successor can be considered the Confederation of independent football organizations .
