Seven nations competing for African women’s youth gold in Niger
16 Sep. 2019

Egypt (EGY), Tunisia (TUN), Angola (ANG), DR Congo (COD), Algeria (ALG), Guinea (GUI) and host nation Niger (NIG) are all in capital city Niamey to contest the 2019 edition of the CAHB Women’s African Youth Championship which starts today (16 September) and finishes on 24 September.
The tournament will be played in a round-robin format with all seven teams playing each other once and the team with the most points at the end taking the title.
The championship started back in 2000 before returning, after a break, in 2009. Angola won that edition, followed by the 2011 and 2013 editions before Egypt took control, winning the last two events, in 2015 and 2017.
