The 2010 CONCACAF Women's World Cup Qualifying tournament was the eighth edition of the CONCACAF Women's Championship, and served as the region's qualifying for the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup in Germany. The final tournament took place from 28 October to 8 November 2010 in Cancún, Mexico.

The United States, Canada and Mexico received byes into the tournament after taking the top three positions in the 2006 Gold Cup, while five other spots were determined through regional qualification. Canada and Mexico, by virtue of their semi-final win, qualified automatically for the 2011 Women's World Cup, while the third-place United States advanced to a play-off against Italy for an additional birth. Costa Rica and Trinidad and Tobago also qualified for the 2011 Pan American Games.

Canada won the tournament with a 1–0 win over Mexico in the final. Similar to their 1998 CONCACAF Women's Championship win, Canada did not concede a single goal in the entire tournament. They scored 17 goals to win their second CONCACAF title. Contrasting Canada's success, the United States' semi-final loss to Mexico marked the first time ever that the U.S. did not win a World Cup qualifying match. It was also the second time that the U.S. failed to appear in a CONCACAF final match, though only because they did not participate in the 1998 championship.
