Wikipedia saying there’ll be an Americas sub-regional in December. No host or teams yet. I don’t know their source.

Wikipedia says the Americas sub regional will have Argentina, Bahamas, Bermuda, Belize, Brazil, Cayman Islands, Mexico, Panama and Suriname (!). Hosted by Argentina. I don’t know the base source. I don’t know how many teams will advance to the regional qualifier. I would think at least three.

Dec. 4th or 6th -16th. It might be a big round robin. Bermuda “will face 8 other teams”.
Wikipedia (wikiwand?) saying three teams will advance to the regional final.

There is a new international T20 (men's) competition in 2025: the North America Cup T20.
Location: Cayman Islands
Dates: April 18 - 27
Teams: Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, Cayman Islands, United States of America

The tournament seems to be a four match round-robin and playoffs. The ICC's backing for the tournament is not stated but it is unlikely there would be funding to play without there involvement. There is also no indication whether the competition will be recurring or how often. Bermuda Cricket Board were also in the running but Cayman Islands was eventually settled on as host.
