Invictus Games fans can now buy tickets to the first sessions of the popular tournament court sports: wheelchair rugby, sitting volleyball and wheelchair basketball, and round-robin pools for each have been revealed. Up to 18 countries are participating in all three sports, including Canada. 

"The tournament draws were meticulously crafted to ensure a balanced and competitive environment for all participating Nations,” said Amy Haken, senior sport manager for the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025 (IG25) in a press release. "Whether you are cheering for Team Canada or any other Nation or just want to show your support for these inspiring competitors, this is your chance to witness high energy, world-class adaptive sport while contributing to a life-changing and truly transformative event." 

All three sports take place at the Vancouver Convention Centre's (VCC) East and West Halls. The top four squads from the last Invictus Games (Düsseldorf 2023) were seeded into separate pools, with remaining teams assigned through a random draw.  

Brazil and Lithuania are competing for the first time, as is Afghan Unconquered: a roster made up of former Afghanistan players now living in Australia and the United States.
