39 World Cup teams will train across the U.S. during the tournament

FIFA has finalized the training locations for 39 World Cup teams competing in the upcoming tournament. The camps will be spread across several U.S. cities, announced this week.

Teams will use these bases to prepare for matches during the competition. The distribution of camps across the country means fans in different regions will have the opportunity to watch teams train and prepare for games.

The full list of cities hosting these training camps has been released, though the breakdown by location shows which squads will be nearest to different parts of the United States.

This decision by FIFA reflects the scale of the World Cup's footprint in the country. Having teams spread out across multiple cities rather than concentrated in one region allows more Americans to experience the tournament firsthand.

Fans interested in watching their favorite team train can check which city their squad will be based in during the competition period.
