With less than two months to go until competition kicks off, the organising committee for the IBSA Blind Football World Championships 2014 has launched the official English-language competition web site at http://en.wc-blind-football.com/ 

The World Championships take place in Shibuya in central Tokyo, Japan, from November 16th to November 24th. For the first time ever 12 teams will compete for the title of IBSA World Champions, and all eyes will be on Brazil as they seek to defend the cup they won in England in 2010.

Hosts Japan will face fancied South American outfit Paraguay in the opening match at 13:30 on Sunday 16th November (local time). The second match of the day pits France against Morocco in what will be the first-ever match featuring an African side at world championships. Both matches are in Group A.
