International football competition

The 2023–24 CONCACAF Nations League C was the third and lowest division of the 2023–24 edition of the CONCACAF Nations League, the third season of the international football competition involving the men's national teams of the 41 member associations of CONCACAF.[1] It was held from 7 September to 21 November 2023.[2][3]

## Format[edit]

Starting from this edition, League C was reduced from thirteen to nine teams which were split into three groups of three teams instead the four groups of previous editions. The teams competed on a home-and-away round-robin basis within each group, with matches being played in the official FIFA match windows in September, October and November 2023. The first-placed team of each group and the best second-placed team among all groups were promoted to the 2024–25 CONCACAF Nations League B.[1]

## Teams[edit]

A total of nine national teams contested League C. As a result of the reduction to 9 teams, there were no teams relegated from League B the previous season, so the nine teams that failed to be promoted last season conformed the League C for this edition.

### Team changes[edit]

The following were the team changes of League C regarding the 2022–23 season:

### Draw[edit]

The groups draw was held on 16 May 2023, 19:00 EDT, in Miami, Florida, United States,[1][5] where the nine involved teams were drawn into three groups of three. The draw began by randomly selecting a team from Pot 1 and placing them in Group A and then selecting the remaining teams from Pot 1 and placling them into Groups B and C in sequential order. The draw continued with the same procedure done for the remaining pots.

The draw resulted in the following groups:[6]
