Bermuda will kick off their next Concacaf Nations League campaign at home to French Guiana in September.

Having been placed in the four-team group C of League B, the men’s national team, who are still searching with a new coach to replace Kyle Lightbourne, will start the campaign on September 8 before travelling to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines four days later.

The national team will then travel to Belize on October 13, with the reverse fixture taking place on island four days later. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines head to Bermuda on November 17 with the concluding fixture four days later away at French Guiana.

League B features 16 teams divided into four groups of four teams. Each team will play every other team in their group, home and away.

Bermuda will be aiming to make vast improvements on the previous Nations League, in which the team finished in third place in group B, above Montserrat only on goal difference with three of their four points awarded after Montserrat withdrew from the match between the sides last June.

Meanwhile, during the same international window, the women’s team will be facing the Dominican Republic, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Barbados in group C of League B of the Concacaf Gold Cup.

Thirty five teams, excluding the two who will compete in the Olympic Games Women’s football tournament (USA and Canada or Jamaica), have been split into three leagues according to their Concacaf ranking as of March 2023, and subdivided into groups.

League A is made up of the nine top-ranked teams divided into three groups of three. Bermuda are in League B alongside the next 12 best-ranked teams divided into three groups of four teams while League C has the 14 remaining teams divided into two groups of four teams and two groups of three teams.

After home and away group stage play, the top finishers in each of the League A groups will qualify for next year’s Concacaf Gold Cup Group Stage.

Furthermore, the second-place finishers in each of the League A groups (three teams) and the first-place finishers in each of the League B groups (three teams) will advance to the Concacaf Women’s Gold Cup preliminaries. Concacaf will announce the Road to Women’s Gold Cup schedule at a later date.
