We’re a little over two months away from the start of the ultimate competition at the 2025 World Games in Chengdu, China, and the World Flying Disc Federation has set the official game schedule for the event.

The tournament will kick off with a Pool A matchup between the United States and Japan. The USA has won five straight gold medals dating back to 2005, though the team has lost pool play games to Germany and Colombia at each of the last two events, respectively. Japan last medaled with a silver in 2009 but always presents a tough test.

The first matchup in Pool B will be a thriller, like perhaps every single game in the pool: 2022 bronze medalists Colombia will take on a reloaded Canada team.

See the full schedule below. All games will be broadcasted live on The World Games Live platform.

All times are in China Standard Time, which is 12 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time and 15 hours ahead of Pacific Daylight Time.
