The FFF has made the decision to take action nationwide and there is no need to risk the public and professional’s health.
All footballing activity has been halted by the Federation.
This follows after leagues in Spain and Italy have already been suspended.
In a statement from FFF president Noel Le Graet on the organization’s official website fff.fr, the suspension has no specific end and will continue until further notice.
The statement read:
“The announcements of the President of the Republic lead the French Football Federation to assume its responsibilities.”
“To contribute without ambiguity to stem the health crisis which strikes our country.”
“Consequently, I wish to announce this evening the suspension of the whole of the activities and competitions managed by the Federation.”
“Its leagues and its districts, on the whole territory.”
“Football schools are suspended from tomorrow Friday, March 13, and until further notice.”
“They will resume as soon as sanitary conditions allow. ”
