The following referees were named for the tournament:
First stage edit
Matches were played in Latacunga, Ambato and Riobamba (Group A) and Loja, Cuenca and Azogues (Group B).[6]
The tournament features a first round, where the ten teams are divided into two groups of five teams each. The top two teams in the groups advance to a final round, instead of a knockout stage.
The final round was set up in a round-robin format, where each team played one match against each of the other teams within the group. The top two teams in the group qualified for the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup in Germany and the 2012 Olympic Games football tournament in London. The first-placed team won the tournament.
Three points were awarded for a win, one point for a draw, and zero points for a loss.
When teams finish level of points, the final order determined according to:
- superior goal difference in all matches
- greater number of goals scored in all group matches
- better result in matches between tied teams
- drawing of lots
