This tournament also served as the first stage of qualification for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup for the African zone.

Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If the sides were level on aggregate after the second leg, the away goals rule was applied, and if still level, the tie proceeded directly to a penalty shoot-out (no extra time was played). [2]

First round

The best placed teams from the 2012 tournament Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and South Africa received a bye to the second round.

The first round was held on 14–16 February (first leg) and 28 February–2 March 2014 (second leg). [3]
