According to the approval of the Women's Football Committee of the UAF and the decision of the Executive Board of the UAF, the Unified Calendar for women's football events in winter 2022 includes participation in an international tournament or international matches (window — February 14–23).

In April, under the guidance of Luis Cortes, the team will host further qualification matches for the 2023 World Cup — against Scotland (April 8) and Hungary (April 12). Then from June 20–29, the teams have scheduled a training camp with friendly matches as part of preparation for the next qualification matches. The final qualifying encounters will be played away against the Faroe Islands (September 2) and Spain (September 6).

According to their final standing in Group B, our national team's future path will be determined. During the autumn windows of October 3–12 and November 7–16, the blue-and-yellow team may continue their journey through playoff matches for qualification to the 2023 World Cup or prepare for the upcoming Euro-2025 qualifier via friendly matches.

Play-off

Nine teams that finish second in their groups will participate in a play-off, which consists of two stages.

The top three among the second-placed teams will have the opportunity to compete directly at the second stage of the play-off. Six remaining participants will compete for three spots in one-legged matches at the first stage. The three winners of the first round and the three teams that qualify directly for the second stage will determine the trio of UEFA playoff winners through one-legged duels.

The two winners of the UEFA play-off second stage with the highest ranking (criteria applied to group stage results plus the second-round play-off) will receive automatic spots at the World Cup, while the third-place winner will continue their journey in the intercontinental playoff.
