Qualification is set to start in September, following a May 17 draw, with nine teams moving on to the 18-country main Gold Cup tournament
CONCACAF has mapped out its pathway for the inaugural CONCACAF W Gold Cup, scheduled to kick off next year in the United States.
CONCACAF made the announcement Wednesday to mark International Women’s Day “This new CONCACAF W Gold Cup will be the flagship event for women’s national team football in our region and will showcase some of the very best women’s football in CONCACAF and the world,” Canadian Victor Montagliani, president of CONCACAF and vice-president of FIFA, said in a statement.
Sixth-ranked Canada can book its ticket to the group stage by beating No. 44 Jamaica in September in the two-legged CONCACAF Olympic Play-In. But the loser of that play-in faces a longer route to the CONCACAF W Gold Cup. The 33 CONCACAF teams, not including the region’s two representatives at the 2024 Paris Olympics , will be split into three leagues according to their CONCACAF ranking of March 2023.
The runners-up in the League A groups and League B group winners advance to the CONCACAF W Gold Cup prelims.
