The Women’s World Cup is already taking place in Canada, but it is about to get even busier for 24 of the American countries as they prepare for their respective international tournaments. The 44th edition of Copa América kicked off on Thursday evening, with host nation Chile beating on Ecuador 2-0 in Santiago, while the CONCACAF Gold Cup will take place for the 13th time in USA and Canada this July. Mexico and Jamaica have a particularly busy schedule as the two nations are competing in both events.

To coincide with these tournaments we’d like to see your photos and stories of either watching or playing football in America. How are you supporting your country this summer? Are you planning on going to any of the Copa America or Gold Cup games? Are you an avid football fan based in America who plays actively and follows the sport with great interest? Whether cheering on the heavyweights of Brazil and Argentina, showing support for underdogs like Panama and Honduras or rooting for Jamaica, Cuba or Trinidad and Tobago share your photos and stories with us and we will feature the best of them on the site.
