Group B will consist of Cuba, Mexico, Costa Rica and St. Kitts and Nevis. 

The tournament will be played July 2-8 at the Domo Polideportivo in Guatemala City, Guatemala, marking the third time that the Central American nation has hosted the event. 

To determine the last qualifier, Canada and El Salvador will face off in a two-leg playoff on June 28 and 29, also at the Domo Polideportivo in Guatemala City. 

For the first time, CONCACAF will send four teams to a FIFA Futsal World Cup.  The next edition will be held Nov. 2-18, 2012, in Thailand.
