GUYANA’S Senior Women’s National Team, the Lady Jags, will begin their qualification campaign for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup by hosting Nicaragua on Monday, December 1, as the 2025/26 Concacaf W Qualifiers get underway.
The Group B match is scheduled for 20:00h at the National Track and Field Facility in West Coast Demerara.
Guyana (ranked 12th in Concacaf) is competing in a five-team Group B which includes regional powerhouse Jamaica (5th), Nicaragua (18th), Dominica (27th), and Antigua and Barbuda (19th). Jamaica is the highest-ranked team in the group.
The winner of Group B will advance to the 2026 Concacaf W Championship. That Championship serves as the final stage of qualification for both the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil and the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
The 2025/26 Concacaf W Qualifiers involve 29 Member Associations competing across three FIFA Women’s International Match Windows through April 2026.
Each team will play two home and two away matches. The last time the Lady Jags competed was in a February 2024 play-off defeat against the Dominican Republic for a Gold Cup spot.
