2022 CONCACAF Women's U-17 Championship qualifying was the qualifying tournament for the 2022 CONCACAF Women's U-17 Championship. Ten teams competed for four spots in the knockout round of the final tournament, where they will join the 16 highest-seeded teams in the competition.

Teams

The 41 CONCACAF teams were ranked based on the CONCACAF Women's Under-17 Ranking as of 1 July 2019. ^[1] A total of 26 teams entered the tournament after six withdrew due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. ^[2] The highest-ranked 16 entrants were exempt from qualifying and advanced directly to the group stage of the final tournament, while the lowest-ranked 10 entrants entered in the qualifying tournament, where the winners of the three groups and the best runner-up advanced to the round of 16 of the knockout stage of the final tournament. ^[2]

Draw

The draw for the group stage took place on 11 June 2021, 11:00 EDT (UTC−4), at the CONCACAF Headquarters in Miami. ^[3] The 16 teams which initially entered qualifying were drawn into four groups of four teams. ^[4] After six teams withdrew due to COVID-19 restrictions after the draw, the format was changed into two groups of three and one group of four. ^[2] Based on the CONCACAF Women's Under-17 Ranking, the initial 16 teams were distributed into four pots, as follows: ^[4]

Pot 1	Pot 2	Pot 3	Pot 4
Honduras   Barbados   Antigua and Barbuda (W)   Saint Kitts and Nevis	Saint Lucia (W)   Curaçao   Dominica (W)   Cayman Islands (W)	U.S. Virgin Islands   Anguilla   Guyana   Belize	Suriname   Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (W)   Guadeloupe (W)   Turks and Caicos Islands

• (W): Withdrew after draw
• Group D was not played due to

the withdrawal of 3 of the 4 teams from the group before starting qualifications. Guyana, originally in Group D, took a place in Group C.
