Costa Rica ‘ready to host the entire tournament’ as Panama bows out as U-20 Women’s World Cup host

Costa Rica “is ready to host the entire tournament,” the Costa Rican Organizing Committee said in a statement.

“Costa Rica has the organization, human resources, sports infrastructure, logistics, technology and accommodation to serve with excellence all the delegations and other activities that the World Cup demands,” the Costa Rican Soccer Federation said.

“Fortunately, the organization of the tournament does not require public resources, since the resources come from FIFA and sponsors.”

Panama had also been chosen by the Central American and Caribbean Sports Organization (Odecabe) as the venue for the XXIV Central American and Caribbean Games.
