Negeri Sembilan Football Association (NSFA) (Malay: Persatuan Bola Sepak Negeri Sembilan (PBNS)), commonly referred to as PBNS, is a sports association that is responsible for handling association football sports affairs in Negeri Sembilan. This association is also the owner of Negeri Sembilan FC. PBNS is an association registered with the Office of the Sports Commissioner of Malaysia and one of the affiliates of the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM). PBNS is currently led by the President of PBNS, Tunku Syed Razman bin Tunku Syed Idrus Al-Qadri, who is also Tunku Besar Tampin. [1][2]
PBNS is also a partner of the Malaysia Football League (MFL), which is the main organiser of the Malaysian football league. The Negeri Sembilan team is currently participating in the Malaysian Super League competition. PBNS focuses on the Football Development Program in Negeri Sembilan, Coaching Courses, Referee Development, Men's and Women's Futsal, Beach Football, and the Women's Football Team, as well as activities at the grassroots level. In addition, PBNS is responsible for the organisation of the Local League according to age levels and the Major League as a platform for talent searches for the Youth Cup (U19) and President Cup (U21) teams. In addition, PBNS also focuses on cooperating to develop football at the district level with the affiliated associations under the auspices of the Negeri Sembilan Football Association. [3]
For 97 years, PBNS has fully managed the Negeri Sembilan football team, better known as the Negeri Sembilan FA, which has brought many successes to the team. In 2020, PBNS decided to privatise Negeri Sembilan as a football club known as Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC). Since then, the roles of PBNS and NSFC have been separated, with each focusing on its respective role. NSFC is registered as a private football club under the name NSFC Pvt. Ltd. and has become a subsidiary of PBNS. [4]
History
The association was established in 1923 according to a passage in the football history books of Malaysia through an interview with Austin Senevirathe, 93 years old when interviewed. He stated about a match that happened between PBNS and Singapore for Malaya Cup in that particular year.[5]
In 1927, PBNS started organizing league matches. Among the trophies that were up for grabs at that time were the Annex Shield, the British Resident's Cup and the Hose Cup. The earliest football clubs that existed and competed in the league were Negri Sembilan Chinese "A", Negri Sembilan Club, Port Dickson Recreation Club, Sungei Ujong Club, Negri Sembilan Chinese "B" and St. Paul's Old Boys Association.[6]

In March 2004, Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan was appointed as the president of the Negeri Sembilan Football Association (PBNS). It's because he successfully held the position as the 10th Menteri Besar of Negeri Sembilan replaced Isa Samad who held that position the previous year. Mohamad Hasan was the first Menteri Besar who has ever been a local football player and then became the president of PBNS. He never represented the first team of Negeri Sembilan but played a lot with clubs in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor.[8] He was banned from football for life after received a red card when NS Malays played against NS Indians in 1977. He was active in football around the 70s.[9]
On 10 September 2018, Tunku Besar of Tampin, Tunku Syed Razman Tunku Syed Idrus Al-Qadri was elected as the new President of the Negeri Sembilan Football Association (PBNS) for the period of 2018-2021 after he won unopposed at the 86th PBNS Congress, at Klana Resort.[10]
