The 2025 FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup is the planned inaugural edition of the FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup, an international futsal competition organized by FIFA. The inaugural edition is to be hosted in the Philippines from November 21 to December 7. [1] [2]
The World Cup was first announced by FIFA in December 2022. This was followed by countries expressing their interests to host, including Finland. [3]
On May 15, 2024, the Philippines was given the hosting rights, [4] [5] [6] beating other bidding nations which include Brazil, Italy, [7] and Spain. [8] [9] The indoor arenas in the Philippines and its successful organization of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup were cited as reasons for the selection. [10]
This will be the first time the Philippines hosts a FIFA event, [10] the second FIFA women's tournament in Southeast Asia - a first since the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship in Thailand, and the second futsal World Cup in the region - a first since the 2012 FIFA Futsal World Cup, which also took place in Thailand.
The 16 teams will be divided into four groups of four. The top two teams from each group will advance to the knockout phase, comprising quarter-finals, semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and the final match. [5]
Alongside the host Philippines, [11] the inaugural 2025 Futsal Women's World Cup will feature 3 teams from Asia (AFC), 2 each from Africa (CAF) and North/Central America (CONCACAF), 3 from South America (CONMEBOL), 1 from Oceania (OFC), and 4 qualifiers from Europe (UEFA). [12] 80 teams along with the host of 211 FIFA members, have participated in the qualification.
This will be Tanzania's first ever senior FIFA tournament. This will also be Iran's first FIFA women's tournament.

The official emblem was launched on 18 March 2025 at the Manila House in Makati. [24] [25]
The emblem is a combination of visual elements depicting futsal and references to street art and motifs in the Philippines. Some of the Filipino culture references featured in the logo include the vinta, the gabbang instrument and traditional Binakael patterns. [24]
The powerful visual identity accompanying the logo, alongside the official slogan of the tournament, "Master The Speed", reflects a game that is constantly on the move and the sights and sounds of the host nation, which are combined with depictions of the futsal ball, the shape of the pitch, and the five members of each team. The design also features arrows that portray the fine line between defense and attack in a form of football renowned for its captivating speed and skill. [24]
Diwa is the official mascot of the FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup. The mascot is a futsal player and is characterized as a "spirited girl with close ties to nature" and represents the values of teamwork, power, and grace. Her design is inspired from the diwata , a fairy from Philippine folklore. She was unveiled on August 30, 2025 at the San Joaquin Elementary School in Pasig during a community event. [26] [27]
