This was the first FIFA tournament hosted by the Philippines,[3] the fifth FIFA tournament held in Southeast Asia, after the 1997 FIFA World Youth Championship in Malaysia, the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship and 2012 FIFA Futsal World Cup in Thailand and the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia, and the second futsal World Cup in the region.

A total of 16 teams took part. Continental championships decided the qualifiers in every region, with the exception of Europe, which organized its own qualification process. Qualification took place between August 2024 and May 2025. Tanzania qualified for their first-ever senior FIFA tournament, while this was also Iran's first FIFA women's competition.

Brazil were champions of this maiden edition, defeating Portugal in the final and became the first Brazilian women's team to win a FIFA tournament.[4] Besides that pioneering result, they coupled their title with their fellow countrymen's success at the 2024 Futsal World Cup.[5]

Host selection

The World Cup was first announced by FIFA in December 2022. This was followed by countries expressing their interests to host, including Finland.[6]

On May 15, 2024, the Philippines was awarded the hosting rights,[7][8][9] beating other bidding nations which include Brazil, Italy,[10] and Spain.[11][12] The presence and quality of indoor arenas in the Philippines and its successful organization of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup were cited as reasons for the selection.[3]

Format

The 16 teams were divided into four groups of four. The top two teams from each group advanced to the knockout phase, comprising quarter-finals, semi-finals, a third-place play-off, and the final match.[8]

Qualification

Qualification was decided by continental championships, with the exception of Europe, who organised a standalone qualification process. A total of 80 teams, including the hosts Philippines, participated in the qualification.

Slot allocation

Alongside the host Philippines,[13] the inaugural 2025 Futsal Women's World Cup slot allocation was as follows: [14]

This was Tanzania's first-ever senior FIFA tournament and Iran's first FIFA women's tournament.[18] Notable absentees included Russia, who were banned from qualification by UEFA due to the country's invasion of Ukraine, and UEFA Women's Futsal Euro 2023 runners-up, Ukraine.

The highest-ranked team to fail to qualify was Vietnam, ranked 11th,[A] while Tanzania was the lowest-ranked team to make it, placed 82nd.

Venue

All matches of the tournament were held at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig, Metro Manila.[19]

Originally, there were two confirmed venues; the other site was the Victorias City Coliseum in Victorias, Negros Occidental. The two venues were approved in January 2025 and confirmed in June 2025.[20][21] Victorias was dropped as a host city in September 2025.[19]

Other venues considered within Metro Manila were the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City and the Ninoy Aquino Stadium in Manila were considered.[3] Outside the metropolis, named venues included the Hoops Dome in Lapu-Lapu City, the Seaside City Arena in Cebu City,[22][23] and the University of San Agustin Gym in Iloilo City.[24][22]

The draw was held at 17:00 PHT on September 15, 2025, at the BGC Arts Center in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.[25] Sports presenter Mara Aquino hosted the draw. The guests were Brazilian futsal legend Falcão, Croatian coach Tihana Nemčić, Filipino international footballer Hali Long, and volleyball player Vanie Gandler, all of whom assisted with the draw. The 16 teams are drawn into four groups of four teams, with the host Philippines automatically seeded to Pot 1 and placed into the first position of Group A.[26] The draw then continued with, in order, pots 1, 2, 3, and 4 being drawn, with each team selected then allocated into the first available group alphabetically. The position for the team within the group would then be drawn (for the purpose of the schedule). The sixteen participating teams were drawn in groups of four.[27] Teams from the same confederation could not be drawn into the same group.

Seeding

The seeding was based on the women's FIFA Futsal World Rankings that were published on August 29, 2025.[28]

Logo and slogan

Branding at the PhilSports Arena with a banner of the official slogan "Master The Speed"

The official emblem was launched on March 18, 2025, at the Manila House in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.[41][42]

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.[41]

The 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.[41]

Controversies

Neglect of Philippine team

According to a report from Spin.ph, several players from the Philippine team stated they were "billeted in substandard quarters" and "with no potable water and inadequate food" as they trained before the start of the tournament. An unnamed player reportedly "nearly fainted from hunger" after "having fasted for many hours as she waited for a blood test". There were also days when "no shuttle service was available for the team". When players complained regarding their accommodation, some of them allegedly had to pay for alternative housing. The team also had no strength and conditioning coach, nor a nutritionist. This led to some players resorting to buying from food delivery services themselves. A representative from the Philippine Football Federation (PFF) reached out to publishing website of the article and said that "no such issues were relayed to the association".[47]
