The top three MT1, excluding Canada, and top two Women’s teams will qualify for the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games being held in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The Men’s Tier 2 (MT2) bracket boasts six teams this year, with MT1 promotion opportunity on the line for 2026 – pending the winner is a full Member Union of RAN.

Thanks to an increase in regional participation for the event, the 2025 tournament will span across three full days of play where Canada (MT1) and México (W) look to defend their titles while MT2 will crown a new champion. MT1 will compete as two pools of four, followed by quarter, semi, and finals, while W and MT2 will face off through round-robin play for standings to determine finals match ups.
