CFU Club Shield
Football tournament
The CFU Club Shield, also known as the CFU Caribbean Club Shield and formerly known as the CONCACAF Caribbean Club Shield, is an annual Caribbean football competition for clubs that are members of the Caribbean Football Union (CFU). It is a second-tier competition to the CONCACAF Caribbean Cup (and formerly the Caribbean Club Championship), introduced in 2018 for clubs which worked towards professional standards.[1] It is organized by the CFU, with CONCACAF organizing it between 2018 and 2023.
Until 2022, the winner of this competition, as long as it fulfilled the licensing criteria, played against the fourth-placed team of the Caribbean Club Championship for a place in the CONCACAF League. As of 2023, the winner and runner-up qualify for the CONCACAF Caribbean Cup.[2]
