The 2025 CECAFA Women's Championship is the upcoming international women's association football tournament to be held in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania from 12 to 22 June 2025. Each of the five national teams participating in the tournament was required to submit a squad of at least 20 players, including two goalkeepers. Only players included in these squads were eligible to take part in the tournament. In the event of a serious injury or illness prior to a team’s first match, a player could be replaced.
The age listed for each player is their age as of 12 June 2025, the first day of the tournament. The club listed is the club for which the player last played a competitive match prior to the tournament. The nationality for each club reflects the national association (not the league) to which the club is affiliated. A flag is included for coaches who are of a different nationality to their team.
A 30-player squad was announced on 10 May 2025 for a WAFCON preparation camp and two friendly matches against DR Congo. [1] The final list was later trimmed to a 20-player squad for the CECAFA Championship in June 2025. [2]
