The 2025 African U-17 Women's World Cup qualification will be the 10th edition of the African U-17 Women's World Cup qualification, the biennial international youth football competition organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to determine which women's under-17 national teams from Africa qualify for the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. Players born on or after 1 January 2008 are eligible to compete in the tournament.
Four teams will qualify from this tournament for the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Morocco as the CAF representatives alongside Morocco being the hosts of the World Cup.[1]
Format
[edit]Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If the aggregate score was tied after the second leg, the away goals rule was applied, and if still tied, the penalty shoot-out (no extra time) was used to determine the winner.
