The International Losers Belt · current holder
Bahamas
Bahamas picked it up on November 12, 2025, losing to Anguilla 2–1. To get rid of it, they have to win a game.
Same schedule, same rules, flipped: the Losers Belt passes to whoever loses to its holder. It's the crown nobody wants, and some nations have worn it for years. It started on March 8, 1873, when Scotland lost to England.
