FIFA sets date for first Women’s Club World Cup. Tournament due to launch in January 2026

Associated Press  

BANGKOK — FIFA finally set a date Wednesday to play the first Women’s Club World Cup tournament in January and February 2026. A 32-team men’s Club World Cup will debut in June-July next year in the United States with teams qualifying by winning or getting consistently good results in four years of continental championships through 2024. FIFA has made launching a global club tournament a key part of its strategy to develop women’s soccer since the soccer body’s current president Gianni Infantino was elected in 2016. FIFA plans to launch an annual “Intercontinental Cup” in December featuring just the champions of the six men’s continental competitions, such as the Champions League in Europe.
