For forty-five years, the World Transplant Games Federation has been working to improve the lives of organ transplant recipients around the world by encouraging participation in Olympics-style events every two years - the summer and winter World Transplant Games - and to call attention to the success of this miraculous medical therapy that allows critically ill individuals to have their health and prosperity restored through the miracle of organ donation.

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
