The Croatian Football Federation (HNS) and TheSportExchange have agreed to explore a new category of digital sports participation connected to the Croatian national football team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The initiative is focused on new ways for supporters to engage with the national team through blockchain-based digital experiences linked to football performance and fan participation. 

TheSportExchange operates digital infrastructure that connects sports communities with team performance data through automated blockchain technology. The collaboration will initially focus on selected digital activations around the Croatian national team ahead of and during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

"Croatia has one of the most respected football traditions in the world and a supporter community that reaches far beyond its borders. We are excited to work with HNS to explore a new category of digital sports participation ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup", said Steve van Zutphen, the founder of TSE Marketplace Ltd.

Further details will be announced by TheSportExchange in due course.
