🎙️ Match Commentary
Alongside the live streaming of matches, we’re delighted to confirm that a team of commentators will be joining us for the 2026 WMH Indoor World Cup.
While it won’t be possible to provide commentary for every match, our aim is to ensure each team has at least one game with live commentary during the tournament.
To help bring the broadcast to life, our commentators would love some background information about all participating teams. This helps add context, stories, and insight to the coverage.
👉 Team managers are asked to complete the short form with some info about your team
✅ Team Checks – Important Information
Team Checks for the 2026 WMH Indoor World Cup will take place on Tuesday afternoon and throughout Wednesday at the David Ross Sports Village.
If you have not yet arranged a time for your team checks, please contact the Technical Delegate as soon as possible to schedule this.
⚠️ All team checks must be completed before your team’s first match.
Please ensure your team is prepared and arrives on time to avoid any delays to participation.
🎫 Accreditation & Wristbands
All players and team staff attending the 2026 WMH Indoor World Cup will be required to wear an official event wristband while at the venue.
Wristbands are essential for venue access and allow organisers to clearly identify everyone involved in the tournament and their role.
👉 Wristbands will be issued during your Team Checks (stick checks) — please ensure all players and staff collect theirs at this time.
Please note:
- Wristbands must be worn at all times inside the venue
- Spectators will also receive a wristband on entry when presenting a valid ticket
This is a key requirement for all participants, so please ensure your full team is compliant.
🚗 Parking Information
Please note that parking at the David Ross Sports Village will follow the standard (non-24/7) charging arrangements during the 2026 WMH Indoor World Cup.
Parking charges apply at the following times:
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday: 9:00am – 4:15pm

🚫 No payment is required after 4:15pm or at weekends.

Please be aware this differs from previous editions of the event, where more free parking was available due to a bank holiday/university closure — this may have caused some confusion.
