Washington, D.C. - The 2025-26 Concacaf W Champions Cup semifinals, third-place match and final will be held at Estadio Hidalgo in Pachuca, Mexico, the confederation announced today.

After finishing atop Group B last fall, the Spirit will take on Group A runner-up CF Pachuca Femenil in the semifinal round on Wednesday, May 20.
