CONCACAF announces League of Nations competition

CONCACAF announced Thursday afternoon the launching of the League of Nations, a year-long unified competition between all 41 countries within the federation.

The tournament is designed to maximize the quality, quantity, and frequency of competitive matches between all 41 CONCACAF member associations.

The new CONCACAF League of Nations will be based on a league structure. All 41 CONCACAF Member Associations will be included, divided into three different leagues, based on their sporting level, with a champion to be crowned at the end of each edition. To seed Member Associations in their respective leagues, the League of Nations will begin with a preliminary series of matches played across four different dates beginning in September 2018.
