Local residents are largely avoiding outdoor activities during peak midday hours, and heat warnings have been issued at the Arizona Athletic Grounds, where the national team is conducting its training camp. During the team's first open training session, digital screens at the facility displayed notices warning that scheduled fan festival activities could be canceled due to the extreme heat. The event ultimately went ahead after temperatures stabilized. To cope with the hot weather conditions, Turkey's national team has shifted its training sessions to 7:15 p.m. local time. Co-hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada, the 2026 FIFA World Cup begins on June 11 and will feature 48 nations competing through July 19.
