Panama won their first title after defeating Mexico 4–1 in the final.[2]
The following twelve teams participated:[3] In May, Bolivia announced their withdrawal due to the country's financial situation and Morocco were invited to replace them.[4] In June, Togo withdrew from the competition, and due to the late announcement no nation was able to replace them. Therefore the tournament organisers called-up a selection of under-21 players from the Mediterranean region.[5]
The following venues were used during the tournament.[6]
| City | Stadium | Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Arles | Stade Fernand-Fournier | 2,500 |
| Aubagne | Stade de Lattre-de-Tassigny | 1,000 |
| Fos-sur-Mer | Stade Parsemain | 12,500 |
| Mallemort | Stade d'Honneur | 720 |
| Miramas | Stade des Molières | |
| Salon-de-Provence | Stade d'Honneur Marcel Roustan | 4,000 |
The match officials were announced on the tournament's website.[7]
Every match consists of two periods of 45 minutes each. In a match, every team has eleven named substitutes and the maximum number of substitutions permitted is five.
In the group stage, in the event of a draw, the two teams face each other in a penalty shoot-out, with a bonus point for the winners. In the knockout stage, if a game tied, extra time would not be played and a penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winners.
The groups were announced on 3 April 2023. The twelve teams were drawn into three groups of four.[1]
