The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has revealed an exciting new logo for the upcoming fourth edition of the CAF Women's Champions League (WCL), set to take place in Morocco this weekend. This unveiling marks a significant milestone in the tournament's history, adding a fresh identity to the competition as the opening match approaches on Saturday, November 9, 2024.
The new logo, inspired by a trophy design, symbolizes the excellence and resilience of African women’s football clubs. According to CAF, the logo’s bold use of purple, orange, and pink reflects key qualities of the competition: royalty, innovation, and youthful energy. These vibrant colors are part of the broader CAF Women’s Football visual identity, highlighting the growing significance of women’s football across the continent.
The new logo also reflects CAF’s continued investment in women’s football, particularly as the tournament enters its fourth edition. The competition promises not only fierce competition but also a substantial reward, with the winner set to receive USD 400,000 and the runner-up securing USD 250,000. These prizes underscore CAF’s commitment to supporting and elevating women’s clubs and the sport as a whole in Africa.
This year’s tournament will feature eight teams from across Africa, all vying for the prestigious title. Defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns from South Africa will be joined by host team ASFAR from Morocco, as well as other top clubs like Aigles de la Medina from Senegal, EDO Queens from Nigeria, and FC Masar from Egypt. Other teams include University of the Western Cape (South Africa), CBE FC (Ethiopia), and TP Mazembe from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The CAF Women’s Champions League has become a platform for showcasing the best talent in African women’s football. With the new logo, the tournament is poised to attract even more attention from fans, sponsors, and federations, all of whom are eager to see the progress and success of the women’s game across the continent.
As the opening match kicks off on November 9, the new logo serves as both a symbol of pride and a call to action, inviting everyone to champion women’s football and support a vibrant future for African women in sport. With its modern design and strong symbolism, the logo marks a new chapter for the tournament and for the growth of women’s football in Africa.
