The historic moment was shared with a very special audience, as pupils from a school near Brentford Stadium, host venue for the semi-finals on Wednesday, 28 January, were given an exclusive first glimpse of the coveted silverware. The unveiling was led by former England international and Arsenal legend Alex Scott, alongside two-time FIFA Women’s World Cup-winning coach and FIFA Chief Football Officer Jill Ellis – two powerful role models inspiring the next generation of women’s football fans.

“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’ time,” said Ellis.

“As a former coach, I firmly believe we must seize every opportunity to engage with the younger generation and share the values and magic of our sport. This incredible new tournament will help inspire a new generation of passionate women’s football supporters – girls and boys alike – and support the game’s continued evolution and growth.”

“It’s incredible to see the first-ever FIFA Women’s Champions Cup come to life here in London, bringing together champions from every continent to compete on a truly global stage,” said FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 2026 Ambassador, Scott.

“Having dedicated my life to football, I know how important moments like this are. The talent on show will be world class and I hope it inspires the next generation to dream even bigger. This is a defining moment for women’s club football and I’m proud that London is at the heart of it.”

During the event, the children received official tournament merchandise, participated in a Q&A session with Ellis and Scott and interacted with the trophy. Next week, they will attend one of the semi-finals at Brentford Stadium which are scheduled to take place on Wednesday, 28 January. Supporters can look forward to two high-quality encounters: the first match will see Concacaf champions Gotham FC (United States) face the team that prevailed in last year’s CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina, SC Corinthians (Brazil) at 12:30 GMT (13:30 CET). This will be followed by a mouth-watering clash between UEFA Women’s Champions League holders, Arsenal Women FC (England) and ASFAR (Morocco), the winners of the CAF Women’s Champions League, at 18:00 GMT (19:00 CET).

On Sunday, 1 February, the action will move to Arsenal Stadium, where the first women’s intercontinental club champions will be crowned. The venue will host both the third-place play-off at 14:45 GMT (15:45 CET) and the final at 18:00 GMT (19:00 CET), bringing the first FIFA Women’s Champions Cup to a memorable close.

The competition is a catalyst for the future of women’s football worldwide, elevating its profile and increasing global visibility for the next generation of elite female athletes.
