CAF Postpones 2026 WAFCON To July 25

News Investigators/ The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has postponed the 2026 Women African Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

The decision came after a long period of uncertainty on whether the tournament would take place, as earlier scheduled.

The tournament which was originally scheduled for March 17 to April 3 in Morocco, would now hold  from July 25 to Aug. 16.

CAF said in a statement on Thursday that the decision was taken to ensure the success of the women’s competition.

“After discussions between CAF and its partners, FIFA and other stakeholders, CAF decided to reschedule the dates of the TotalEnergies CAF WAFCON 2026, to July 25 to 16 August.

“This is to ensure the success of this important women’s competition, in the light of certain unforseen circumstances.

“Preparations for the TotalEnergies CAF WAFCON 2026 are underway and all the parties are confident that it will be very successful ,” CAF noted.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that 16 teams would take part in the tournament, where Nigeria is the defending champion and most successful team, with 10 titles to her credit.
