The 2020 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship qualifying stage took place between 13–21 July 2019. The teams competed for four of the 20 berths in the 2020 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship final tournament.
Players born on or after 1 January 2000 are eligible to compete.[1]
The qualifying format changed from the 2018 edition, and the teams were no longer divided into regional zones.
The 41 CONCACAF teams were ranked based on the CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Ranking as of 2018.[2] A total of 26 teams entered the tournament. The highest-ranked 16 entrants were exempt from qualifying and advanced directly to the group stage of the final tournament, while the lowest-ranked 10 entrants participated in the qualifying stage, where the two group winners and the two group runners-up advanced to the round of 16 of the knockout stage of the final tournament.[3]
