No. FA, in soccer terms, stands for "Football Association" and the term is most closely associated with England, where the governing body of English soccer is known simply as "The Football Association" or more casually "The FA" (www.thefa.com). The governing bodies of some countries are also officially Football Associations, but the English press also uses the term FA generically to refer to such organizations.

As for famous competitions, you may be thinking of The FA Cup, which is one of the oldest sporting competitions in the world, beginning in the 1871-1872 season. The FA Cup is open to all levels of English soccer from semi-pro to Premier League teams such as Arsenal and Manchester United. This year over 700 teams are participating in The FA Cup.
