The Tiwura National Football Team is the team representing Tiwura in international competitions involving men's football. Founded in 1917 as the Estmerish colony of the Royal Coast, the team would primarily compete in tournaments located against other Estmerish colonies. After independence, the team was reformed into the TNFT in 1951 after a year long hiatus and would mainly compete in small regional tournaments in Bahia and northern Coius. Tiwura first would be relegated to regional tournaments until 1998 when the team qualified for the Coupe du monde.
