The Under-20 Women’s National Team have emerged victorious at the COSAFA Championship, and crowned 2024 champions.
The squad capped off their stellar campaign with a 1-0 victory over Mozambique, completing the round-robin tournament with an impressive 100 percent winning record.
The Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) extended heartfelt congratulations to the team, with its president, Andrew Kamanga, commending the group for reaffirming the country’s reputation as a dominant force in regional football.
“On behalf of my executive and the Zambian football community, I wish to congratulate the Zambia Under-20 team and technical bench for this sweet victory at the COSAFA Championship,” Kamanga said.

He highlighted the recent successes of Zambia’s national teams, noting that the Copper Queens’ victory at the COSAFA tournament earlier and now the Under-20 team’s triumph demonstrate the country’s rising football prowess.
Kamanga expressed optimism for the Under-17 girls and boys teams, who are set to compete in their respective COSAFA tournaments next month, drawing inspiration from their senior counterparts.
“This adds to football’s gift to the nation during Zambia’s 60th Independence anniversary celebrations. The Chipolopolo’s qualification to the AFCON a few days ago was another great achievement for our football,” Kamanga added.
