The Final Draw for the TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Morocco 2026 will be held in Rabat on Thursday, 15 January 2025.
On the same day, the Confédération Africaine de Football (CAF) will also announce the winners of the CAF Women’s Coach of the Year and other outstanding women’s football awards.
The draw will mark a historic moment for the competition, featuring an expanded 16-team field for the first time.
The 16 qualified teams are: Morocco (hosts), Algeria, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia.
These awards were originally scheduled to be presented at the CAF Awards 2025, but were postponed as the Women’s Football season had not concluded due to the ongoing CAF Women’s Champions League.
Earlier this week, CAF officially re-opened voting for the three categories.
CAF does not participate in the voting process but oversees and coordinates it.
