The Sint Eustatius national football team is the national association football team of the Caribbean island of Sint Eustatius. It is a not member of the Caribbean Football Union, CONCACAF, or FIFA and therefore cannot compete in tournaments sanctioned by these organizations.[1] It is under the auspices of the Statia Football Association.[2]
Formerly Sint Eustatius was represented in international football by the Netherlands Antilles national football team until the country was dissolved on 10 October 2010 and Sint Eustatius became a separate Special Municipality.[3] Since 2004 Sint Eustatius has played at least nine international friendlies against neighboring island Saba in a series of inter-island matches.[4]
The national football team of Bonaire, another island that holds the status of Special Municipality within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, has been a member of the CFU and CONCACAF since 2013 through the support of the Dutch KNVB, leaving open the possibility for Sint Eustatius membership in the governing bodies.[5] [6] In August 2021 the KNVB, joined by Bert Zuurman and former Aruba national team coach Elvis Albertus, organized a football course on the island.[7]
The team's home stadium is the Cottage Ball Park in the capital of Oranjestad, the only football venue on the island.[8]
