Group C

Group C qualifier:  Bahamas w/o  Turks and Caicos Islands (Turks and Caicos Islands withdrew).

Bahamas qualified but subsequently withdrew; their place was taken by Guyana. The supposed participants are  Cuba,  Netherlands Antilles,  Guyana,  Dominican Republic, and the matches were planned to be played in Cuba. However, Netherlands Antilles, Guyana, Dominican Republic all withdrew later, and so Cuba won the group automatically.

Group D

Group D qualifier:  Guyana w/o  Suriname. NB: was scheduled for Sep 5 and 11 but cancelled. Since Bahamas in Group C withdrew, their place was taken by Guyana (see above); Suriname was drawn into Group D.

NB: Bermuda have protested the eligibility of three BVI players (Montgomery Butler, Avondale Williams, Venton James) as being Saint Vincentians; in particular in the case of Avondale Williams this is rather surprising as he already played for BVI in the 2001 edition of this tournament (scoring against the Cayman Islands) and even played (and scored) for the BVI against (of all teams!) Bermuda in World Cup 2002 qualifying
