The 2022 CONCACAF W Championship was the 11th edition of the CONCACAF W Championship, the quadrennial international women's football championship contested by the senior women's national teams of the member associations of CONCACAF, the regional governing body of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. Eight teams played in the tournament, which took place from 4 to 18 July 2022 in Mexico.[1] The United States emerged as the winner, defeating Canada 1–0 in the final.[2]

The tournament served as the CONCACAF qualifiers to the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, as well as for the football tournaments at the 2024 Summer Olympics in France and the 2023 Pan American Games in Chile. The top two teams in each of the two groups qualified for the Women's World Cup, while the third-placed teams from each group advanced to the inter-confederation play-offs.[3] The winner qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics and the 2024 CONCACAF W Gold Cup, while the second and third-placed teams advanced to the CONCACAF Olympic play-off.[4][5] Finally, the champions and the best team from each of the three CONCACAF sub-regions qualified for the 2023 Pan American Games.[6]

The United States were the two-time defending champions, having won the 2014 and 2018 tournaments.[7]
