Miami, FL (Friday, March 13, 2020) – Given the constantly evolving public health situation, and global concerns about the spread of COVID-19, the Concacaf Council convened yesterday via a conference call.

During the meeting the decision was made to suspend all upcoming Concacaf competitions scheduled to take place over the next 30 days.

The Concacaf Council took these decisions with the welfare of everyone involved in mind, and in light of developing travel restrictions and public health guidance.

The following competitions have been suspended with immediate effect:

•  2020 Scotiabank Concacaf Champions League
