Alphonso Davies & Canada surprise father-daughter duo with Unsung Hero award

When the players walk onto the field ahead of every FIFA World Cup 2026™ match, focus is trained on the spectacle: the flags, the banners, the signage. But behind every pre-match ceremony is a team of volunteers making it happen, working hard to ensure that when the fans tune in – everything looks perfect. They are the heartbeat of every FIFA tournament. And in Vancouver, Canada, approximately 2,500 passionate volunteers are helping world football’s governing body to deliver the greatest show on Earth at the FIFA World Cup 2026. To celebrate the positive impact they have had in Vancouver, FIFA and Canada Soccer teamed up to create a truly special moment in recognition Andy and Christina Basi, who have an inspirational story.
