## Caption

As the World Cup arrives in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada this month, each of the tournament-record 48 teams is settling into its selected home base of a paired training facility and hotel.⁠
⁠
Some are moving into professional soccer training centers. Others are setting up shop at colleges and universities.⁠
⁠
Four top teams—FIFA-ranked No. 2 Spain, No. 8 Morocco, No. 11 Croatia, and No. 19 Switzerland—chose elementary and high schools.⁠
⁠
Some of the schools already operate a side business as training sites for clubs playing nearby, and FIFA’s multi-week rental fee adds a big additional revenue stream. FIFA hasn’t been open about its facilities rental fees, and most schools declined to share specifics. But the schools are likely being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars each to let a national team take over their campus this summer.⁠
