Kaieteur Sports – The Lady Jags, Guyana’s senior women’s national team, are set to confront the Dominican Republic on February 17 for a chance to secure a spot in the main draw of the Concacaf Women’s Gold Cup.
A victory for the Lady Jags in their upcoming match at the Dignity Health Sports Park Track and Field Stadium in Carson, California, USA, would propel them into Group A of the Women’s Gold Cup, alongside formidable teams such as the USA, Mexico, and Argentina.
Having clinched the top spot in Group A of League B during the qualifiers, the Lady Jags earned their ticket to participate in their third major Concacaf tournament, after previously featured in the 2010 and 2016 Concacaf Women’s Championships.
In other preliminary matchups, Haiti will face Puerto Rico, and El Salvador will battle Guatemala.

The 12-national team Group Stage is scheduled to occur between February 20-28, 2024, at Dignity Health Sports Park (Group A), Snapdragon Stadium (Group B), and Shell Energy Stadium (Group C).
