FIFA has officially unveiled the trophy for the inaugural FIFA Women’s Champions Cup, marking a significant step ahead of the conclusion of the organization’s first global women’s club competition.
The trophy was revealed on Monday in London during an event attended by pupils from a school near Brentford Stadium, according to a post shared on FIFA’s X handle.
Brentford Stadium will host the semi-final matches on Wednesday, January 28.
Former England international and Arsenal legend, Alex Scott, took part in the unveiling alongside FIFA’s Chief Football Officer, Jill Ellis, who has twice guided her national team to FIFA Women’s World Cup glory.
“It was a pleasure to spend time with the children and witness their excitement as they saw the trophy up close. I can’t wait to see them in the stadium in just a few days,” Ellis said.
She added that the event underscored the importance of inspiring young people through football, noting that the pupils’ excitement was a reminder of the sport’s power to connect and motivate future generations.
Scott, serving as an ambassador for the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 2026™, described the tournament as a landmark moment for women’s club football.
She highlighted that it brings together champions from every continent on a single global stage and said the standard of play on display is sure to inspire both young players and fans alike.
The attending children were treated to official tournament merchandise, took part in a question-and-answer session with Ellis and Scott, and even had the chance to interact with the trophy.
They are also set to attend one of the semi-final matches later this week.
On the field, action kicks off at Brentford Stadium on Wednesday with Concacaf champions Gotham FC taking on Brazil’s SC Corinthians, the winners of the CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina. UEFA Women’s Champions League holders Arsenal Women FC will follow, facing Morocco’s ASFAR, the CAF Women’s Champions League victors.
The tournament will conclude on Sunday, February 1, at Arsenal Stadium, where the third-place play-off and final will determine the first-ever women’s intercontinental club champions.
According to FIFA, the Women’s Champions Cup aims to elevate the global profile of women’s football, boost visibility for elite female players, and support the continued growth of the women’s game worldwide.
