Falconets Extend Perfect World Cup Qualification Record

Nigeria’s Falconets have once again secured qualification for the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, extending one of the most remarkable records in global women’s football. 

The next edition of the tournament will take place in Poland from September 5 to September 27, 2026, with the Falconets set to represent Africa once again on the global stage.

Since the competition began in 2002, Nigeria has qualified for every single edition, making the Falconets the only African team to maintain a perfect attendance record at the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup.

The team has also built a strong reputation for developing elite talent, with many former players progressing to the Super Falcons and major clubs around the world.

Twice runners-up in the tournament’s history, the Falconets continue to carry Nigeria’s flag proudly, reinforcing the country’s enduring influence in women’s football.
