The Confederation of African Football has set July 2025 as the date for the next Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The competition had initially been scheduled to be played this year in Morocco.
However, a decision at a CAF Council meeting earlier on Friday, June 21, moved the tournament to next year.
The 21-day continental event will commence on July 5, 2025, and end on July 26, 2025.
This comes after months of uncertainty following the completion of the qualifiers.
“I am also impressed by the enormous growth of Women’s Football in Africa and I am expecting the WAFCON Morocco 2024 to be immensely successful,” CAF president Patrice Motsepe said.
“We will continue to make significant progress in developing and ensuring that African Football is globally competitive and amongst the best in the World.
"CAF is grateful to King Mohamed VI of Morocco, the Fédération Royale Marocaine de Football (“FRMF”), its President Fouzi Lekjaa, the Government, and the people of Morocco for hosting the CAF TotalEnergies AFCON Morocco 2025 and the CAF TotalEnergies WAFCON Morocco 2024.”
Ghana's Black Queens had secured qualification for the competition after missing out since 2018.
