The schedule for the United Cup 2025 has been announced. The team-based competition will be played from December 27 to January 05 where some of the top players are set to participate to secure the ultimate prize.

The tournament will be played in two different cities, Perth and Sydney. Groups A (USA, Canada, Combined 2), C (Greece, Kazakhstan, Spain), and E (China, Germany, Brazil will play their fixtures in Perth.
