Discover the new team sports opportunities at WTG2025

Get ready to experience the World Transplant Games 2025 like never before! This year, we’re introducing a game-changing update to the competition rules: team sports and relay events will now be considered additional competitions, separate from the five-individual-entries limit. This means you can dive into Volleyball, Six-a-Side Football, 3×3 Basketball, and more without missing out on your individual events.

Here are the sports rules!

The World Transplant Games Federation has officially finalized the Sports Rules for the World Transplant Games 2025 in Dresden. These comprehensive guidelines cover all key aspects, from scoring procedures in each sport to equipment requirements, ensuring a framework for successful and fair competitions.

Make it all about the sports venues

The World Transplant Games will celebrate their German debut in Dresden in 2025. For the first time in their nearly 50-year history, the World Championships for transplant recipients and dialysis patients will be held in Germany, taking place from August 17 to 24, 2025. Around 2,500 athletes from all over the world are expected in the Saxon capital.

Statement on the potential halt of the Opt-Out Solution in Germany

Dresden, November 11 – With the current German government on the brink of dissolution, there is now a significant risk that the Federal Council initiative for an opt-out solution in organ donation could fail. This development is particularly concerning as it occurs in the year when the World Transplant Games will be held in Germany for the first time (August 17-24, 2025, in Dresden).

More than 20 clubs & associations support WTG2025 in Dresden

Dresden, 23 October – With around 300 days to go until the World Transplant Games in Dresden, the countdown is officially on! From August 17 to 24, 2025, thousands of athletes will travel to the capital of Saxony to participate in the world’s largest sporting event for transplant recipients and living donors. The organizer, World Transplant Games 2025 Dresden GmbH, has already secured the support of more than 20 clubs and associations from Dresden and its surrounding region for this major event. Volunteers will also have the unique opportunity to be part of this extraordinary sporting event.
