A total of 30 nations has qualified for the 2021 Women's Lacrosse World Championship.[3] The top ten nations at the 2017 Women's Lacrosse World Cup automatically qualified while twenty other nations earned their place through participating in the continental qualifiers. China, Chinese Taipei, and Finland participated in the qualifiers but failed to qualify but they were designated as potential participants should a qualified team withdraw from the tournament. Kenya withdrew with China, a participant of the 2017 Women's Lacrosse World Cup unlike the two other teams, named as replacement.[4] Argentina, Jamaica, Norway, Puerto Rico, and Uganda will make their debut in the world championship.[5]
