International Fly Fishing Association (IFFA)
The International Fly Fishing Association (IFFA) was formed to co-ordinate and manage international fly fishing competitions. The earliest surviving minutes of the organising committee are of a meeting held on the 25th of May 1931.
The present members of the association are the national organisations of competitive fly fishing in England (AT-TEFF), Ireland (ITFFA), Scotland (SANACC), and Wales (WSTAA).
The most important and prestigious events in the trout fly fishing calendar are the international matches held between these four countries.
