Bahamas qualified but they also withdrew; their place was taken by Guyana. The participants were supposed to be:  Cuba,  Netherlands Antilles,  Guyana,  Dominican Republic, and the matches were planned to be played in Cuba. However, Netherlands Antilles, Guyana, Dominican Republic all withdrew later, and so Cuba won the group automatically.
