On June 6, 1930, the government of King Zog I issued a royal decree recognizing the establishment of the Albanian Sports Federation.

The newly formed sports entity would join the world governing body, FIFA,[1] during the June Congress of 1932, officially marking Albania’s participation in international football.

A revised order was issued in March of 1934, to dissolve the Federation, transferring its authority to the heads of the national entity "Vllaznija Shqiptare" (est.1928), which was in charge of various sports activities at the time.

[5] In February 2011 it was decided that the new stadium, which will replace the current one and will cost 60M Euro, will be 75% of FSHF and 25% of the Albanian government.
