The much-awaited FIFA World Cup kicks off with an opener between co-hosts Mexico and South Africa at Mexico City Stadium on 12 June. While the fandom and the love for the most popular sport on earth remain constant off the field, there is a lot that’s changing on the field. The Virtual Assistant Referee (VAR) is getting more control of the game, with the power to intervene in spotting fouls and also identify real-time data from the specially designed football to make faster offside decisions, or pick out individual ball touches in a crowded set piece.
The football designed especially for match day is called Trionda Pro, which means “three waves.” It is styled in the colors and motifs of the three co-hosting nations, Mexico, Canada and the United States of America, and is said to arrive with a built-in motion sensor, which would send real-time ball data to VAR. The ball is now available for $170.
Designer: adidas
Created by adidas for the FIFA World Cup 2026, Trionda Pro is the official match ball of the tournament. It will arrive in a tricolor wave panel design with red, green, and blue graphics, which pays tribute to Canada, Mexico and the USA. The ball also features maple leaf, eagle, and star – again representing the nations – visible across the four-panel construction of the ball.
“The Trionda Pro has a textured surface for a more predictable trajectory, better touch and lower water uptake, combined with a thermally bonded seamless construction for added performance and design benefits,” adidas notes on its webpage dedicated to the match ball.
Even though the impactful silhouette makes the ball pretty identifiable on the ground, adidas and FIFA wanted more from it. To that accord, Trionda Pro features a 500Hz motion sensor installed inside of its specially created layer in one of the four panels. The other three panels are provided with counterbalances ensuring flight stability in all playing conditions. The sensor is part of adidas’ in-house Connected Ball Technology and used in the match ball. It sends accurate ball movement analytics to the VAR in real time and also helps identify individual touches precisely.
The data of the ball movement, then combined with AI and player-positioning data, can allow the virtual referee to assist with correct offside calls and also identify a handball from headers in a crowded space on the field. Accurate and fast decisions regarding off-sides and fouls can make a big difference in high-octane games, especially on the world stage. So, Trionda Pro is a viable tech upgrade to the sport, which is going into a mega tournament for a period of 39 days starting 11 June through 19 July, 2026.
