Group B will consist of Canada, Costa Rica, Panama, and 4. The top two finishers in each group will not only advance to the Concacaf W Championship semifinals, they will automatically qualify for the 2023 Women’s World Cup. The 3rd place teams from each group will qualify for the World Cup Playoff, which is set to take place in February 2023.
