  Scottish Junior Football Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scottish Junior Football Association (SJFA) is the organising body for the 'junior' grade of football (soccer) in Scotland.
This grade of football is commonly mistaken for a level at which boys football is played, but the term 'junior' refers not to the age of the players, but the level of football played.
The 'senior' grade of football in Scotland is played in the Scottish Premier League, the Scottish Football League as well as the three senior non-leagues, the Highland Football League, the East of Scotland Football League and the South of Scotland Football League.
