Conmebol officially announced this Friday a news that was already confirmed: the launch of the Women's Nations League, the South American Qualifiers to the FIFA Women's World Cup.

It is a new competition “that marks a key step in the evolution of South American women's football,” said the maximum football entity of the continent.

The tournament, which will be played between the nine selections of the region – with the exception of Brazil, already classified to the World Cup as host – will serve as a classification for the FIFA 2027 Women's World Cup, granting two direct quotas and two places to the intercontinental rejection.

The format will be all against all, as in the male qualifiers, “which guarantees more official matches and a higher level of demand for the participating selections,” Conmebol explained, which gave no more clarity about the structure of the tournament.

The South American Confederation also explained that this organization seeks to offer “a more solid preparation, improve competitive rhythm and consolidate sports processes in each country.”

Thus, they said, the League of Nations not only points to the sports, “but also to the commercial and institutional growth of women's football in South America.”

There is already a date for the calendar raffle in the female qualifiers

The calendar raffle, when all doubts about the competition format are expected to be resolved, will be held on July 31 at 2:00 p.m. (Paraguay time) and can be followed live on the Conmebol YouTube channel.
