The World Cup qualifying tournament, featuring 22 Concacaf Member Associations, will run from January 27 to February 1, 2025, across four venues.
The young Reggae Girlz will kick off their campaign against St Kitts and Nevis on January 30 before facing Nicaragua on February 1.
The qualifiers mark the debut of a new two-round format. In Round One, the 22 participating teams, ranked fifth and below based on Concacaf's Under-17 women’s rankings, were divided into six groups.
Group matches will take place across four venues: Puerto Rico (Group A), Trinidad and Tobago (Group B), and Nicaragua (Groups D and E), while the Dominican Republic will host Groups C and F.
