CAF African Schools Football Championship: Team Profile - DR Congo (Girls)

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO

Zonal Union: UNIFFAC

Past Appearances (0): None

The Democratic Republic of Congo finished as runners-up in the UNIFFAC qualifiers for the CAF African School Football Championship 2024-25, but take their place at the finals tournament by virtue of winners Congo facing a FIFA suspension.

The team narrowly failed to qualify for the inaugural event in 2022-23 when represented by Uwezo School Complex as the latter lost to CEG Mfilou from Congo in the final of the zonal competition.

It was a similar story for the 2023-24 edition as Congo again edged DR Congo in the girls competition, and then again in 2024-25.

The DR Congo girls will finally get the chance to showcase their quality on the continental stage at the finals and will have high hopes they can go deep into the competition.

There is certainly no shortage of talent in the team and after so many near misses, they will be motivated to grab this opportunity and make it count.
