2026 World Cup Ball – adidas Trionda Official Match Ball

Meet the 2026 World Cup ball, adidas Trionda—a next-generation match ball created for football’s biggest stage. Its flowing, tri-colour graphic celebrates the host nations with blue stars, red maple leaves and green eagle motifs, all set on a crisp white base with subtle gold detailing. Under the lights, Trionda’s sculpted surface and bold visuals track beautifully in flight and on broadcast.

Four-Panel Precision, Built for Pure Flight

Trionda debuts a revolutionary four-panel construction, the fewest panels ever used on a World Cup ball. Fewer seams mean a rounder shape, more consistent aerodynamics and a cleaner strike zone. The seamless, micro-textured cover adds controlled grip in wet or dry conditions, while engineered debossing helps stabilize the ball through swerves, knuckles and long diagonals.

Connected Ball Technology

Inside the shell sits an advanced inertial motion sensor (500 Hz) that captures ball data at high frequency. Integrated with VAR systems, it provides instant insights on touches, offsides and handball incidents—supporting faster, more accurate decisions without changing the feel for players.

Design Story: Three Nations, One Wave

The name Trionda combines tri (three) and onda (wave), a nod to the tournament’s tri-nation hosting and the iconic “la ola” that rolls around stadiums. Each colour zone carries national iconography:

• Blue / stars – United States

• Red / maple leaf – Canada

• Green / eagle motif – Mexico
  A subtle triangle formed where the panels meet symbolises the unity of the three hosts.
