However it is not a member of the OFC or FIFA and hence does not participate in official competitions such as World Cup qualifying. The national team is the most important organ of the Nauru Amateur Soccer Association. NASA was formed in 1973 and since then has been inconspicuous outside of the country. The federation is as yet unrecognized by either FIFA or the OFC as an official national football federation. There are no football stadia in Nauru; the incomplete sports stadium in Meneng could one day provide a venue suitable for international matches.

On October 2, 1994 the Nauruan national football team played a friendly match in Denigomodu against a team from the Solomon Islands, a match recognized by the OFC. Nauru surprisingly won the match 2-1, one of the greatest sporting surprises for Nauru, especially as the Solomon Islanders won the Melanesian Cup the same year. Thus the Nauruan team has a 100% winning record to date.
