Trionda’ Named Official Ball for the 2026 World Cup

The release extends Adidas’ five-decade run as FIFA’s match-ball supplier.

Overview

  • FIFA revealed Trionda on social media, ahead of the June 11–July 19, 2026 tournament in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
  • Adidas says the four-panel construction targets high performance, with a fluid geometry that echoes stadium waves referenced in the ball’s name.
  • Details in blue, green and red represent the three host nations, complemented by a star for the U.S., a maple leaf for Canada and an eagle for Mexico.
  • Gold accents nod to the World Cup trophy, while the manufacturer claims the ball enables quicker officiating decisions and richer in‑match performance data.
  • A Bola marked the reveal with a photo gallery tracing World Cup balls from leather models to milestones such as Azteca (first all‑synthetic), Teamgeist (near‑perfect roundness), Brazuca (most‑tested) and Al Rihla (fastest in flight).
