Beyond the trophy, the award underscores the team’s sustained growth, resilience, and consistency as women’s football becomes increasingly competitive across the continent.

In the men’s category, Morocco’s U-20 national team, fresh from their historic FIFA U-20 World Cup victory, were voted the CAF National Team of the Year, adding to a memorable night for Moroccan football.
