As champions of the football tournament at the 2025 World Transplant Games in Dresden, Germany will now host the 2026 Transplant Football World Cup in Frankfurt, welcoming both returning teams from the inaugural TFWC 2024 tournament and new nations ready to join the competition.
The Transplant Football World Cup (TFWC) brings together transplant recipients from around the world to compete in an international football tournament that celebrates life, resilience and the power of organ donation.
Hosted by the World Transplant Games Federation (WTGF) in cooperation with TransDia Sport Deutschland e.V., the tournament will welcome national teams representing transplant communities from across the globe.
Frankfurt is the ideal host city for this event. As the administrative heart of football in Germany and home to the headquarters of both the DFB and the DFL, the city stands for football governance, visibility and credibility. Combined with its outstanding international accessibility, first-class infrastructure and strong transport connections, Frankfurt offers excellent conditions for teams and delegations from around the world.
