The competition was announced by the CFU in March 2018.[1] It is the third women's competition organized by the CFU, after the 2000 CFU Women's Caribbean Cup and the 2014 CFU Women's Caribbean Cup.[2] It is played in April 2018 across five venues, and serves as preparation for the CONCACAF Championship and World Cup qualifiers starting in May. Unlike the two previous CFU Women's Caribbean Cup tournaments, there is no final round and thus no overall champion.

A total of 20 teams (out of 31 CFU members) entered the competition.

gollark: Well, actually, I just used anomalous "beeoids" in Esobot to seed its RNG.
gollark: If you look at the code and then use anything vaguely related to any part of it in anything you right, it immediately becomes the property of the FSF.
gollark: Idea: design an even more restrictive license than AGPLv3.
gollark: How has nobody realized this?
gollark: Macron is literally just metahistomorphic semifunctors.
