The 2023 SheBelieves Cup, named the 2023 SheBelieves Cup Presented by Visa for sponsorship reasons, was the eighth edition of the SheBelieves Cup, an invitational women's soccer tournament held in the United States. Featuring national teams from Brazil, Canada, Japan, and the United States, the tournament lasted from February 16 to February 22, 2023. The United States emerged as champion, winning all three of its games.

Format

The four invited teams played in a round-robin tournament. Points awarded in the group stage followed the formula of three points for a win, one point for a draw, and zero points for a loss. In the event two teams were tied in points, tie-breakers would be applied in the order of goal difference, goals scored, head-to-head result, and a fair play score based on the number of yellow and red cards.
