The Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) announced today the complete schedule for its Under-17 Women’s Championship, which starts on May 2 with a Group A doubleheader.  In the opener, defending champion Canada meets Panama immediately followed by an encounter between host Guatemala and Jamaica. 

Group B play commences with another doubleheader on May 3, when the Bahamas faces the United States and Mexico takes on Trinidad & Tobago. 

All matchdays in the tournament will be played as doubleheaders at the Estadio Cementos Progreso in Guatemala City, site of the 2010 CONCACAF Under-20 Women’s Championship and numerous CONCACAF Champions League games. 

Guatemala and Canada will square-off against each other for the first time in the competition’s history to complete Group A action on May 6, while round-robin play will conclude the following day with a Group B match-up between the United States and Mexico.  

The group winners will face the runners-up from the other group in the semifinals on May 10, with the third-place and championship matches set for May 12. 

The two finalists and the winner of the third-place game will qualify for the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Azerbaijan from September 22 to October 13.
