Continuing the WTGF’s mission, the Federation’s Board of Directors approved establishing a significant new initiative - the Transplant Football World Cup - to provide a new and exciting international event for transplant football. Modelled on the FIFA World Cup, the competition will feature teams from the Federation member countries competing in a World Cup format to crown an International Champion.
Teams will be composed of transplant recipients using the same criteria as those used for the summer and winter World Transplant Games. Heart, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, and bone marrow recipients will unite on the pitch to celebrate their second chance at life. Men and women of all ages can compete for their country in this inaugural event. As many as 14 nations are expected to send teams to participate in a 7-a-side week long promotion of organ donation, demonstrating that those with a transplant can achieve anything in their chosen sport
Please help support our players who have overcoming such adversity in their lives in showing the life changing/saving benefit of organ donation.
