IBSA has confirmed the host country and dates for next year's 2nd IBSA Blind Football Central American Championships.
Guatemala City will play host to the event from November 2nd to November 10th 2019.
The championships will be staged by the IBSA member organisation in the country, the Comité Pro-Ciegos y Sordos de Guatemala (Guatemalan Organization for the Blind and Deaf).
The event returns to the same venue as the first sub-regional championships in Central America, held in November 2017. Costa Rica won those championships, defeating the hosts 3-2 on penalties after an exciting one each draw in the final and qualifying for the World Championships in the process.
