On 12 March 2024, CONCACAF announced the inaugural edition of the CONCACAF W Champions Cup. The tournament will feature eleven teams from seven CONCACAF member associations. The winner of a preliminary round match between a club from Canada and El Salvador joined the remaining nine teams in the group stage. In the group stage, teams were split into two groups of five teams. Teams faced each other in asingle round-robin format, with each team playing two matches at home and two matches away in August, September and October 2024. The top two clubs from each group advanced to the knockout stage, which will be played at a centralized location on 21–24 May 2025. The knockout stage will feature semi-finals, a final to determine the champions of the competition, and a third place play-off.
The tournament was originally intended to provide a pathway for a futureFIFA Women's Club World Cup whichFIFA had committed to launching in the future, but with the postponement of the Women's Club World Cup to 2028, FIFA awarded the winner of the 2024–25 CONCACAF W Champions Cup a semifinal spot in the2026 FIFA Women's Champions Cup.[1][5][3]
Teams in the group stage were ranked according topoints (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If two or more teams were equal on points, the following tiebreaking criteria were applied, in the order given, to determine their rankings:[6]
CONCACAF allocated spots to seven of their member associations based on eligibility criteria. Each association had one spot in the tournament, with the exception of Mexico and the United States, which had three.[1]
