The '''Wales national football team''' ({{lang-cy|Tîm pêl-droed cenedlaethol Cymru}}) represents [[Wales]] in men's international [[Association football|football]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Association of Wales]] (FAW), the governing body for [[football in Wales]]. They have been a member of [[FIFA]] since 1946 and a member of [[UEFA]] since 1954.
The team
Historically, the Welsh team has featured a number of players from Wales' top club teams, [[Cardiff City F.C.|Cardiff City]] and [[Swansea City A.F.C.|Swansea City]]. These two Welsh clubs play in the English league system alongside fellow Welsh clubs [[Newport County A.F.C.|Newport County]], [[Wrexham A.F.C.|Wrexham]] and [[Merthyr Town F.C.|Merthyr Town]]. However, most Welsh football clubs play in the [[Welsh football league system]]. As a [[Home Nations|country of the United Kingdom]], Wales is not a member of the [[International Olympic Committee]] (as Welsh athletes compete for [[Great Britain at the Olympics|Great Britain]]) and therefore the national team does not compete in the [[Olympic Games]].
