Women’s World Cup 2031: Mexico, Costa Rica & Jamaica set to host matches alongside USA

Mexico, Costa Rica and Jamaica have joined the United States’ bid to host the Women’s World Cup in 2031 and are expected to host matches in the expanded 48-team tournament.

Fifa President Gianni Infantino confirmed in April that the United States, along with “potentially a few other Concacaf members”, had submitted the sole bid to host the competition.

U.S. Soccer President Cindy Parlow Cone said of the joint bid:, external “Together we have an extraordinary opportunity to host the largest and most impactful Women’s World Cup in history, a Cup that will inspire a new generation of fans and help grow women’s football across our region and around the world.

“We are excited to contribute to lasting progress for women’s football by creating a legacy that extends well beyond 2031 and sets a new global standard for the sport.”

Concacaf is the football confederation of North, Central America and the Caribbean.

Its president and FIFA vice-president, Victor Montagliani, added: “Concacaf fully supports this four-nation bid, which embodies our One Concacaf philosophy.

“Our confederation’s commitment to women’s football has never been stronger, and hosting the 2031 FIFA Women’s World Cup will build on that momentum, inspiring future generations of players and fans across North America, Central America and the Caribbean.”
