The current format of the tournament involves seven teams competing for the title at venues within the host nation over a period of about two weeks; the winners of that year's AFC Champions League (Asia), CAF Champions League (Africa), CONCACAF Champions Cup (North, Central America and Caribbean), CONMEBOL Libertadores (South America), OFC Champions League (Oceania) and UEFA Champions League (Europe), along with the host nation's national champions, participate in a straight knock-out tournament. The host nation's national champions contest a play-off against the Oceania champions, from which the winner joins the champions of Asia, Africa and North America in the quarter-finals. The quarter-final winners go on to face the European and South American champions, who enter at the semi-final stage, for a place in the final.

The first attempt at creating a global club football tournament, according to FIFA, was in 1909, 21 years before the first FIFA World Cup.[5] The Sir Thomas Lipton Trophy was held in Italy in 1909 and 1911, and contested by English, Italian, German and Swiss clubs.[6] English amateur team West Auckland won on both occasions.[7]

There they were claiming that the English weren't interested in the world championship, yet the BBC sent 60 people to cover the tournament. This shows that it was the most important competition that they have taken part in in their history. They came here thinking they were going to win easily but they didn't count on the strength of Vasco. No Manchester player would get a place in the Vasco team at the moment. The Brazilians are the best players in the world, the Europeans do not even come close.

The second edition of the competition was planned for Spain in 2001, and would have featured 12 clubs.[68] The draw was performed at A Corua on 6 March 2001.[69] However, it was cancelled on 18 May, due to a combination of factors, most importantly the collapse of FIFA's marketing partner International Sport and Leisure.[70] The participants of the cancelled edition received US$750,000 each in compensation; the Real Federacin Espaola de Ftbol (RFEF) also received US$1 million from FIFA.[71] Another attempt to stage the competition in 2003, in which 17 countries were looking to be the host nation, also failed to happen.[72][73] FIFA agreed with UEFA, CONMEBOL and Toyota to merge the Intercontinental Cup and Club World Championship into one event.[74] The final Intercontinental Cup, played by representatives clubs of most developed continents in the football world, was in 2004, with a relaunched Club World Championship held in Japan in December 2005.[75] All the winning teams of the Intercontinental Cup were regarded by worldwide mass media and football's community as de facto "world champions"[76][77][78] until 2017 when FIFA officially (de jure) recognised all of them as official club world champions in equal status to the FIFA Club World Cup winners.[79][80]

In late 2016, FIFA President Gianni Infantino suggested an expansion of the Club World Cup to 32 teams beginning in 2019 and the reschedule to June to be more balanced and more attractive to broadcasters and sponsors.[129] In late 2017, FIFA discussed proposals to expand the competition to 24 teams and have it be played every four years by 2021, replacing the FIFA Confederations Cup.[130]

The new tournament with 24 teams was supposed to start in 2021 and would have included all UEFA Champions League winners, UEFA Champions League runners-up, UEFA Europa League winners, and Copa Libertadores winners from the four seasons up to and including the year of the event, with the remainder qualifying from the other four confederations.[131][132] Along with a new UEFA Nations League competition, revenues of $25 billion would be expected during the period from 2021 to 2033.[133] The first tournament would have been played in China; however, the tournament was cancelled[134] due to scheduling issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[135]

On 16 December 2022, FIFA announced an expanded tournament that would have 32 teams and start in June 2025.[134][136][137] The International Federation of Professional Footballers and World Leagues Forum both immediately criticized the proposal.[134] On 23 June 2023, FIFA confirmed that the United States will host the 2025 tournament as a prelude to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.[138] The 32 teams will be divided into 8 groups of 4 teams with the top 2 teams in each group qualifying to the knockout stage. The FIFA Council also unanimously approved the concept of an annual club competition from 2024, in response to the fact that the FIFA Club World Cup will be held for the last time in its current guise in 2023.[139]

Africa's best representatives were TP Mazembe from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Moroccan club Raja CA, which finished second in 2010 and 2013, respectively. Asia's best representatives were Kashima Antlers from Japan, Al-Ain from the United Arab Emirates and Al-Hilal from Saudi Arabia, finishing second in 2016, 2018 and 2022, respectively. North America's best result was Mexican team Tigres UANL, which earned a second-place finish in 2020. These six clubs are the only sides from outside Europe and South America to reach the final.

As of 2022, most teams qualify to the FIFA Club World Cup by winning their continental competitions, be it the AFC Champions League, CAF Champions League, CONCACAF Champions League, Copa Libertadores, OFC Champions League or UEFA Champions League. Aside from these, the host nation's national league champions qualify as well.[185]

The maiden edition of this competition was separated into two rounds. The eight participants were split into two groups of four teams. The winner of each group met in the final while the runners-up played for third place. The competition changed its format during the 2005 relaunch into a single-elimination tournament in which teams play each other in one-off matches, with extra time and penalty shoot-outs used to decide the winner if necessary. It featured six clubs competing over a two-week period. There were three stages: the quarter-final round, the semi-final round and the final. The quarter-final stage pitted the Oceanian Champions League winners, the African Champions League winners, the Asian Champions League winners and the North American Champions League winners against each other. Afterwards, the winners of those games would go on to the semi-finals to play the European Champions League winners and South America's Copa Libertadores winners. The victors of each semi-final would play go on to play in the final.[185]

The winners of the competition are also entitled to receive the FIFA Champions Badge; it features an image of the trophy, which the reigning champion is entitled to display on its first-team kit only, up until and including, the final of the next championship. The first edition of the badge was presented to Milan, the winners of the 2007 final.[191][192] All four previous champions were allowed to wear the badge until the 2008 final, where Manchester United gained the sole right to wear the badge by winning the trophy.[193]

The 2000 FIFA Club World Championship was the inaugural edition of this competition; it provided US$28 million in prize money for its participants. The prize money received by the clubs participating was divided into fixed payments based on participation and results. Clubs finishing the tournament from fifth to eighth place received US$2.5 million. The club who would eventually finish in fourth place received US$3 million while the third-place team received US$4 million. The runner-up earned US$5 million while the eventual champions would gain US$6 million.[194]

Since its inception in 2000, the competition, despite its name and the contestants' achievements, has received differing reception. In most of Europe it struggles to find broad media attention compared to the UEFA Champions League and commonly lacks recognition as a high-ranking contest.[207][208] In South America, however, it is widely considered the highest point in the career of a footballer, coach and/or team at international club level.[209][210] In Brazil and Argentina, the tournament is seen as a continuity of the Intercontinental Cup.[citation needed]

The competition is also criticised, mainly by the European press and fans among others, for its format, which favours the UEFA and CONMEBOL teams, since their representatives start in the semi-finals and can only meet each other in the final match.[citation needed] The opening up of the global market in football has changed the balance. Nowadays, the best South Americans are usually playing for the European teams.[211][212] FIFA's decision to choose the competition's host based on financial factors rather than footballing ones, as in the case of Qatar, has also been criticised.[213] Additionally, the economic benefits to the winning team are considered inferior to any Super Cup prizes.[214][215]

My son, aged 11, just got FIFA17 for PS4 as a present. He would now like to play FIFA Ultimate team. Seems like something he should be able to do - no adult content that I don't want him to see. However, I would like to be in control of how many FIFA points he can buy on a monthly basis.

I see that both the Origin account system and the PSN account system allow you to create child accounts. "Great", I thought - just what we need. 3 hours later after one of the worst possible user experiences I have ever seen (and I've seen a lot), I realize that the ONLY way for my son to play FIFA Ultimate team is to let him use MY PSN account and MY Origin account.

Can you please explain to me, dear EA, what the intent of this design is? How do you intend for 11 year olds to play FIFA Ultimate Team? Or did you not design for that? Seems strange given the game's rating. This frustrating experience seems to me a complete misinterpretation of COPPA or other privacy policies. Or was it just too difficult to design an experience for kids that actually worked? Please let me know what your best practice for kids and FIFA Ultimate Team is since I will then need to figure out how I can let my son play the game...Oh, and by the way, what do I tell my 9 year old when HE wants to play FIFA Ultimate team using a different account? "Sorry, not possible"? ff782bc1db
