1992 Federation Cup Americas Zone
The Americas Zone was one of three zones of regional Federation Cup qualifying competition in 1992. All ties were played at the Atlas Colomos T.C. in Guadalajara, Mexico on clay courts.
The sixteen teams were divided into four pools of four to compete in round-robin matches. After each of the ties had been played, the eight teams that finished first and second in each of the respective pools would then move on to the two-round knockout stage of the competition. The two teams that won two matches of the knockout stage would go on to advance to the World Group.

Famous quotes containing the words federation, cup, americas and/or zone:
“Women realize that we are living in an ungoverned world. At heart we are all pacifists. We should love to talk it over with the war-makers, but they would not understand. Words are so inadequate, and we realize that the hatred must kill itself; so we give our men gladly, unselfishly, proudly, patriotically, since the world chooses to settle its disputes in the old barbarous way.”
—General Federation Of Women’s Clubs (GFWC)
“Sisters define their rivalry in terms of competition for the gold cup of parental love. It is never perceived as a cup which runneth over, rather a finite vessel from which the more one sister drinks, the less is left for the others.”
—Elizabeth Fishel (20th century)
“The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“There was a continuous movement now, from Zone Five to Zone Four. And from Zone Four to Zone Three, and from us, up the pass. There was a lightness, a freshness, and an enquiry and a remaking and an inspiration where there had been only stagnation. And closed frontiers. For this is how we all see it now.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
