Swope soccer village

Swope Soccer Village: The England football team is likely to be based in Kansas City during the FIFA World Cup 2026, with the Football Association (FA) formally requesting the governing body to provide Swope Soccer Village as the team’s primary training base for the tournament.

Swope Soccer Village, which is a state-of-the-art facility in Missouri, has been identified as England’s preferred daily training venue. While FIFA is yet to confirm the final base camps for participating nations officially, England is likely to get their favourable venue, as reported by the BBC.

England's team have been drawn in Group L and will play their group-stage matches across multiple venues in the United States. England is scheduled to face Croatia in Arlington, Texas, on June 17, before taking on Ghana in Foxborough near Boston on June 23 and Panama in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on June 27. The team is expected to fly to each match venue and return to Kansas City following every fixture during the group stage.
