Built by Fans
We're a small team based in the DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) — a place where soccer conversations never stay small.
The World Cup has a way of bringing people together.
Friend to friend.
Father to son.
Generations debating the same match.
Even two strangers arguing over a call.
That shared passion is what inspired OfficialWC26.
Just fans of the beautiful game creating a tournament worthy of it.
Independent
OfficialWC26 is an independently run fan contest and is not affiliated with or endorsed by FIFA or any World Cup governing body.
