FIFA organizes international football (soccer) tournaments through a structured process involving its Congress, Council, and various committees. FIFA’s main legislative body is the FIFA Congress, where each national organization has one delegate. The Congress is responsible for electing the president, approving the budget, and choosing the location of future quadrennial World Cup tournaments.
Qualifying for the World Cup is a long process that occurs during the years between each tournament. Each of FIFA’s six confederations determines its own qualification system, which produces the men’s teams that represent each confederation’s region. FIFA also organizes tournaments for young players, such as the World Youth Championship and the Under-17 World Championship, as well as the Women’s World Cup and the World Club Championship.
