The 2025 Women's Futsal Africa Cup of Nations (Arabic: كأس أمم أفريقيا لكرة الصالات للسيدات 2025) was the inaugural edition of the Women's Futsal Africa Cup of Nations, the biennial international women's futsal competition in Africa, organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The tournament took place in Rabat, Morocco, from April 22 to 30, 2025,[1] and will double as the African qualifiers for the 2025 FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup in the Philippines.[2]

Morocco defeated Tanzania 3–2 in the final, scoring the winning goal just 11 seconds before the end of regulation time to become the inaugural champions of the competition.[3]

Host selection

Following the introduction of the FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup in October 2023, the CAF Executive Committee, at its meeting on 21 October 2024, decided to establish African qualifiers for the competition.[4] By the deadline, two football associations had submitted their bids to host the tournament.

On 26 January 2024, CAF selected Morocco to host the final tournament.[6]

Teams

For the inaugural edition, a total of 9 out of 56 CAF member associations participated in the competition, representing all five CAF subregions.[7][8]

Draw

The draw was held on 13 February 2025 at 13:00 EST (UTC+2) at the CAF headquarters in Cairo, Egypt.[9]

Seeding

The 9 teams were drawn into three groups of three teams, with hosts Morocco automatically placed into the first position of Group A. The remaining 8 teams were placed in a single pot and drawn one by one to fill the remaining positions.[10][11]
