The 2012 Algarve Cup will be the nineteenth edition of the Algarve Cup, an invitational women's football tournament held annually in Portugal. It will take place between February 29 – March 7 2012.

Format

The twelve invited teams were split into three groups that played a round-robin tournament.

Groups A and B, containing the strongest ranked teams, are the only ones in contention to win the title. The group winners from A and B will contest the final, with the runners-up playing for third place and those that finished third in these two groups playing for fifth place.

The teams in Group C are playing for places 7–12, with the winner of Group C playing the team that finishes fourth in Group A or B with the better record for seventh place and the Group C runner-up playing the team which came last in Group A or B with the worse record for ninth place. The third and fourth-placed teams in Group C play for eleventh place.

Points awarded in the group stage follow the standard formula of three points for a win, one point for a draw and zero points for a loss. In the case of two teams being tied on the same amount of points in a group, their head-to-head result determined the higher place.
