The Chagos Islands national football team is a football team representing the territory of the Chagos Archipelago in the Indian Ocean. However, this area, which falls under the administration of the British Indian Ocean Territory, is uninhabited save for the presence of a US military base on the island of Diego Garcia, after the United Kingdom evicted the local population between 1967 and 1973. As a consequence, the team in fact represents the Chagossian diaspora around the world.

They were led by Sussex-based manager Jimmy Ferrar until June 2024 when a number of players expressed a desire to play under the British Indian Ocean Territory name, leading to a split and two separate teams under different names representing the territory.
