Birmingham Water Works (BWW) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the World Games 2022 in the United States.

The Alabama-based company has said that it will use the partnership to "expand education about water in everyday life".

"This was a rare opportunity that I’m happy to say Birmingham Water Works is eagerly anticipating," said Birmingham Water Works general manager Michael Johnson.

"We have a world-class operation here at BWW, and to be able to share our resources on a platform like this is major for our entire service area."

It is set to host displays at the event later this year in the Birmingham CrossPlex as well as installing multiple misting stations on site for the duration of the Games.

"The World Games 2022 appreciates this opportunity to partner with the Birmingham Water Works," said the World Games 2022 chief executive Nick Sellers.

"There is so much positive momentum surrounding our city right now, and The World Games 2022 will be an incredible moment to showcase all that Birmingham has to offer."

The World Games 2022 is set to take place from July 7 to 17 in Birmingham in the United States.

It is due to be the first time that the country has hosted the event since its inaugural edition in Santa Clara in 1981.

President of the International World Games Association José Perurena has predicted that the 2022 event can be the best in history and has commissioned a survey to evaluate the Games objectively to prove it.
