The 2024 CONCACAF Futsal Championship was the 8th edition of the CONCACAF Futsal Championship, the quadrennial international futsal championship organised by CONCACAF for the men's national teams of the North, Central American and Caribbean region. The tournament was held in Managua, Nicaragua between 13 and 20 April 2024, and was the first edition not hosted by Costa Rica or Guatemala.[1][2][3][4]

Same as previous editions, the tournament acted as the CONCACAF qualifiers for the FIFA Futsal World Cup. The top four teams of the tournament qualified for the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup in Uzbekistan as the CONCACAF representatives.[1][2][3][4][5]

The champions Panama, runners-up Cuba, third-placed Guatemala, and fourth-placed Costa Rica, qualified for the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b c With the score 8–3 in favor of Costa Rica and 21 minutes and 1 seconds played, the match was abandoned as Haiti was unable to field the minimum of 3 players. Haiti started the match with a total of 10 players and substitutes, 2 of which were goalkeepers. Several Haitian players left the game due to injury, although under suspicious circumstances as there was no obvious cause in most cases. CONCACAF implied the final score will stand at 8–3 in a news release later the same day.[19]
