Saturday 13 September 2025 we’re hosting a local World Cup tournament in Ringkøbing!

More than 90 nationalities call Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality home – and that’s something worth celebrating!

That’s why Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality and Ringkøbing IF (RIF) are inviting people of all nationalities to form their own “national teams” and take part in a fun, community World Cup soccer tournament.
