Qualification

Eight teams qualified during the qualification tournaments held in their respective zones in 2004; two teams (USA and Canada) qualified automatically since they are the only members of the North America zone.

The tournament draw took place Monday, April 18, in Santo Domingo. The teams were split into 5 pots; those drawn first went to Group A, those drawn last went to Group B.

The draw split the tournament into two groups:

Group ABrazil Canada Panama United States VenezuelaGroup BArgentina Dominican Republic Mexico Puerto Rico Uruguay

Format

  • The top four teams from each group advance to the quarterfinals.
  • Results and standings among teams within the same group are carried over.
  • The top four teams at the quarterfinals advance to the semifinals (1 vs. 4, 2 vs. 3).

The semifinal losers were also given berths in the 2006 World Championship.
