To begin with, England had no permanent home stadium. They joined FIFA in 1906 and played their first ever games against countries other than the Home Nations on a tour of Central Europe in 1908. Wembley Stadium was opened in 1923 and became their home ground. The FA was represented at a FIFA meeting for the first time in 1906, but withdrew in 1920 because it refused to be associated with certain countries, before rejoining in 1924. However, it dropped out again four years later in a dispute over FIFA's definition of amateurism. The FA renewed its FIFA ties in 1946, and an England team competed in its maiden FIFA World Cup in Brazil in 1950.
Bobby Charlton played a crucial role in England's re-emergence as a world football power in the 1960s, alongside team-mates of the calibre of Gordon Banks, Bobby Moore and Martin Peters. Ably managed by Alf Ramsey, England won the World Cup in 1966.
