The 2017 Copa CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina was the ninth edition of the CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina (also referred to as the Copa Libertadores Femenina), South America's premier women's club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL. The tournament was hosted in Paraguay from 7 to 21 October 2017.[1][2]

Sportivo Limpeño were the defending champions, but they were eliminated in the group stage.[3]

Teams

The competition was contested by 12 teams: the champions of all ten CONMEBOL associations were given one entry, additionally the title holders re-enter and the host association qualifies one more team. The qualifying competitions of each association usually end late in the year (September to December).

Draw

The draw was held on 18 September 2017, 12:00 PYT (UTC−4), at the headquarters of the Paraguayan Football Association.[24][25][26] The 12 teams were drawn into three groups of four.

Notes
  1. ↑ The draw was held before the identity of the team from Bolivia (Deportivo ITA) was known.

Group stage

The group winners and top runners-up advanced to the semi-finals.

On 9 October 2017, none of the scheduled Group C matches were played as players from several teams showed symptoms for food poisoning.[28] CONMEBOL later announced the competition would be paused for three full days, to be resumed on 12 October 2017 with a modified schedule with four matches played on that day.[29] The group stage was also extended from 15 to 17 October, while the semi-finals were rescheduled from 18 to 19 October.[30] The Group B match between Colón and Universitario were further postponed from 13 to 15 October because some players had not yet recovered from food poisoning.[31]

All times are local, PYST (UTC−3).[32]
