The top three teams from each group will advance to the 16-team knockout stage, which will take place from March 4 to 12. Four group winners (Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Curaçao, and Suriname) from a preliminary qualifying round held in Curaçao in September will also compete. The two tournament finals, as well as the winner of the third-place game, will compete in the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup in August 2022.
