The Uganda Senior Women’s Football National Team, Crested Cranes, is set to play two friendly games in the upcoming international break.

Crested Cranes will play Algeria, and the two friendly games will be held in Algeria.

Previously, Uganda played against DR Congo on the road, and the Sheryl Botes team won both games.

This means that Match Day 8 of the Finance Trust Bank FUFA Women Super League that was set to be played over this weekend might be rescheduled.

Algeria will use these games to get to know more about East African countries’ style of play since they might meet Tanzania in the WAFCON tournament in Morocco.

The draw will start at 20:00 local time (19:00 GMT) and will be broadcast live on major broadcast channels across Africa and internationally, as well as on CAF’s digital streaming platform, CAF TV. The draw will determine the fate of the 12 Africa’s top women’s National Teams.

The 13th edition of the TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations will take place from July 5th to 26th, 2025, in Morocco.

South Africa is the current champion of the competition, having won it on Moroccan soil in 2022.
