A striking brand was revealed today for the FIFA Futsal Women’s World Cup Philippines 2025™, capturing the speed of the game and the unstoppable energy of the host nation.
The tournament’s dynamic emblem and official slogan – Master The Speed™ – were unveiled to invited guests and media representatives at Manila House in Metropolitan Manila.
Sixteen of the world’s top women’s national teams will compete in the Philippines from November 21 to December 7, 2025, in a quest to be crowned the inaugural FIFA Futsal Women’s World Cup™ champions. In the build-up to the first-ever FIFA tournament to be held in the Philippines, the brand launch provides a glimpse of the excitement to come.
The stunning contemporary emblem has a distinctly Filipino flavor, blending key elements of futsal with references to local street art, Zamboanga vinta boats, the gabbang musical instrument, and traditional binakol patterns.
The powerful visual identity reflects a game that is constantly on the move, incorporating the sights and sounds of the host nation along with depictions of the futsal ball, the pitch, and the five members of each team. The design also features arrows symbolizing the fine line between defense and attack, a hallmark of futsal’s captivating speed and skill.
“The launch of this brand marks a major milestone, not just for this event, but for the advancement of women in sport globally,” said Philippine Football Federation President John Anthony Gutierrez.
“It is an honor for our country to host the first-ever edition of the FIFA Futsal Women’s World Cup, and we are proud to welcome the world’s best national teams for a tournament that will inspire girls and women to pursue a career in sport. This tournament will capture the imagination of fans in the Philippines and beyond, forging a path for future generations.”
FIFA Chief Women’s Football Officer Dame Sarai Bareman added:
“With the launch of this brand, the countdown begins to a landmark event that will further accelerate the rapid growth of women’s football, both in the region and globally.
This tournament will be a defining moment for the women’s game, bringing together the best national teams from all six confederations to showcase their talent and inspire future generations.”
With New Zealand already securing a spot alongside the host nation, the four European representatives will be decided by the end of this week. Meanwhile, the three South American participants will be confirmed before the month ends. By May 17, when the AFC preliminary competition concludes, a total of 16 teams will be finalized, including three Asian teams, two from Africa, and two from North, Central America, and the Caribbean.

FIFA Director of Tournaments Jaime Yarza commented:
“It is incredible to see how women’s futsal has grown over the past couple of decades, culminating in the launch of the FIFA Futsal Women’s World Cup in the heart of Southeast Asia this year. For this inaugural edition, the number of teams involved in qualifying amounted to no fewer than 70.
With just over eight months to go, excitement is building ahead of what promises to be an enthralling competition in a destination renowned for its beauty and culture – and this has been vividly depicted in the stunning tournament emblem.”
