This year, there is only one wristband: the 2026 ASANA World Series Wristband. Every rostered individual will receive one. Wearing it at ASANA events and at the ballpark is encouraged as a simple way to identify and connect with fellow participants, but it is not required.​​

If a person is on the field, participating in a game they are eligible to be in our tournament. ​Cis women, trans men, trans women and non-binary people can play in our tournament. Eligibility is determined by our Member Cities and tracked in our player database as a system of record. ​

All team wristbands will be included in the manager’s bag, available for pick-up at the Registration Event on Tuesday. Managers are responsible for distributing wristbands to their rostered players

​

Managers: If you are unable to attend, you can assign a representative to pick up the team's wristbands.

Your safety matters to us, and ASANA always takes steps to help everyone feel secure and supported during the World Series. For this year, we’ve:​

• Informed local law enforcement of our event for added visibility

• Communicated past concerns to our host hotels and partners

• Selected inclusive venues for official events
   

Outside of ASANA events, we encourage everyone to research safe travel practices, know the areas they are traveling to, and be aware of the established LGBTQ+ resources in the destinations they visit.

Wristbands are a fun and easy way to visually identify those taking part in the ASANA World Series experience. While it is not required, wearing one helps create a sense of connection and community, letting others know you’re part of the festivities at official events and around the ballpark.

ASANA will leverage as many means of communication as possible - bookmark the website, follow us on Facebook or Instagram, and keep an eye on your email for the latest news & updates during World Series Week.
