The CONCACAF Women's Under-17 tournament is a football (soccer) competition for women's national teams under 17 years of age in North America, Central America, and the Caribbean region and is the qualification tournament for the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. A tournament is an eight-nation event, with three teams qualifying for the World Cup.[1]
After sanctioning its first women's youth world championship in 2002, FIFA added the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup to its calendar of events in 2008. CONCACAF, likewise, began its U-17 Women's Championship the same year, staging the inaugural event in Trinidad & Tobago. The United States won the inaugural U-17 Women's Championship, defeating Costa Rica 4–1 in the final.
The qualification process for the 2012 tournament started on 14 August 2011.[2]
