The EFA headquarters is located in Gezira, Cairo. The EFA organizes the semi-professional Egyptian Second Division as well as the lower regional leagues at the third and fourth levels of the league system.[2]
Christians comprise approximately 5–15% of Egypt's population, the majority of whom are Coptic Orthodox Christians.[3] Despite their significant numbers, there are currently no Coptic members on the national football team. However, in the past, there have been notable Christian players, such as Hany Ramzy. Additionally, prominent Christian families, like the Sawiris family, own major football clubs, including El Gouna FC and ZED FC.
Over the years, there have been numerous reports and complaints (both formal and informal) from Coptic advocacy groups and community members, such as Coptic Solidarity, regarding the alleged exclusion of Christians from the football league and Egypt's national team. A similar complaint was filed by Coptic Solidarity to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) concerning the exclusion of Christians from Egypt's Olympic teams. These exclusions have been described as systematic, though neither FIFA nor the IOC has initiated any investigations into these claims.[4][5]
