The two previous events, Atlanta 1996 and Sydney 2000, saw only the eight best teams from the FIFA Women's World Cup in 1995 and 1999 compete. However, a FIFA decision encouraged the confederations to organise their own qualifying competitions, but while AFC, CAF, CONCACAF and OFC acted upon FIFA's request, CONCACAF merely nominated Brazil as the South American representative and, as a result of scheduling problems in the current match calendar, the two top UEFA teams from the FIFA Women's World Cup USA 2003 gained direct entry to Athens 2004.
