US confirms bid for 2031 Women's World Cup after FIFA boost
Gulf Today
|March 07, 2025
The United States Soccer Federation (USSF) said Wednesday it will press ahead with a joint bid for the 2031 Women's World Cup after a FIFA decision boosted the CONCACAF region's chances of staging the tournament.

The USSF said in a brief statement on social media that it planned to “complete the bid process to host the 2031 FIFA Women's World Cup” in partnership with the CONCACAF regional federation and its members.
“We are excited by the opportunity to welcome teams and fans, inspire the next generation and grow the game regionally and globally,” the US federation said.
The United States and Mexico had initially planned to bid for the 2027 Women's World Cup but withdrew their candidacy last year weeks ahead of a FIFA vote in Bangkok, saying they would instead concentrate on a successful bid for 2031. The 2027 tournament was eventually awarded to Brazil.
