FIFA announces first women’s club World Cup in 2026

Tournament, expected to feature 16 teams, will be contested in January and February every four years

8:20 PM MYT

 

BANGKOK – FIFA will organise the first women’s club World Cup in 2026, the football governing body said today after a council meeting, reported German news agency dpa. 

The tournament is expected to be contested by 16 teams in January and February. The competition will be held every four years and further details will follow in due course, FIFA said after approving the match calendar from 2026 to 2029.

FIFA said it is also reducing the number of women’s international match windows from six to five.

The measures “represent an important milestone in our pledge to take the women’s game to the next level by enhancing competitiveness across the world,” FIFA president Gianni Infantino said.

The men’s club World Cup will be held under a new format with 32 teams instead of seven, from next year. The new tournament is planned to take place every four years. – May 15, 2024
