WCC 2023 LOCATION


Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the north and the Caribbean Sea on the south, our lush tropical island paradise boasts nearly 1,000 miles (1,609 km) of coastline, 250 miles (402 km) of the worlds top beaches, magnificent resorts and hotels, and a variety of sports, recreation and entertainment options. Here you can dance to the pulse pounding thrill of the merengue, renew in our luxurious and diverse accommodations, explore ancient relics of centuries past, delight in delicious Dominican gastronomy or enjoy ecotourism adventures in our magnificent national parks, mountain ranges, rivers, and beaches.

Blessed with one of the Caribbean regions longest white sand coastlines–a whopping 48 kilometres (30 miles), punctuated with sky-reaching coconut palms–Punta Cana is the land of rest and relaxation by the sea. Here, where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean, from the northern tip at Uvero Alto to the southern at Cap Cana, all-inclusive resorts and boutique hideaways offer all the whims and comforts of modern beachfront living.

Golitos Foundation

WCC 2023 CHARITY

The Golitos Foundation offers an adapted football sports program aimed at children with Autism, where physical, emotional, and social skills are developed using soccer as a channel.

Very pleased and proud for working together with GOLITOS since 2013, our first time celebrating WCC in Puerto Rico. We are back in 2023 to keep the spark in their eyes in a new edition.

Thanks for all your donations to support Golitos kids smiles

The Global Football Tournament for Air Traffic Controllers and Pilots
The World Controllers´ Cup

Greetings friends from around the world!

Its that time of year again where we meet up to compete in the WCC!

We are heading back to Punta Cana and very excited to be linking up again with The Golitos Foundation run by Mr Omar Alvarez. 

Golitos is an organization that teaches football skills to children with autism. Each year at the WCC we try to raise as much money as we can for this incredible company and this year we have the opportunity once more to get involved in a training session with the Golitos kids.

Punta Cana is a beautiful destination in the Caribbean and the tournament format will be 7-a-side where teams can expect to play 6-8 matches over the course of the week.

I look forward to welcoming you all to Punta Cana this November to meet old friends and make new ones over a beer and a game of football!

Yours in sport

Allan Beattie
WCC President

We have proudly grown into a unique global family.
The World Controllers´ Cup was born as an idea to get together air traffic controllers from all over the world. To continue developing our friendship while playing our most favorite sport: Football What started as crazy and somehow impossible idea back in 2009, today has gathered over 28 ATCo teams, and more than 40 nationalities competing to be the world ATC champion.
